Ingredients:
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups shredded zucchini
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×9-inch baking pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the shredded zucchini and chopped walnuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into squares.
