Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 F and line an 8x8" baking pan with lightly greased parchment paper.
  • Slice the ends off of the zucchini and shred with food processor or grater. Place in a bowl and lightly salt. Allow to sit for 5 minutes to draw out the moisture. Squeeze out all of the liquid with a nut milk bag or clean dish towel. The zucchini should be dry.
  • Add the eggs, mashed banana, maple syrup, coconut oil, and vanilla extract to the bowl with the zucchini and mix well.
  • Pour in the almond flour,  oats, coconut flour, cinnamon and baking powder and stir well to combine. Gently fold in the chocolate chips. The batter will be fairly thick.
  • Transfer to the baking pan and evenly press down. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-30 minutes or until baked through and the edges are crisp (my oven runs hot and tends to bake up in less time, so check your cook time often).
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before removing. Allow to cool before slicing into 9 slices.
  • Serve fresh or store in the fridge for 3-4 days. You can freeze the bars for up to 1-2 months.

Notes

Swap the egg for a flax egg with 6 tbsp water and 2 tbsp ground flax. Using a large mixing bowl, combine the flax and water and stir to combine. Allow to sit for 5 minutes.
