Ingredients

  • 1/2 small zucchini, about 90 grams before draining shredded and drained, 45 grams
  • 50 grams oats (1/2 cup) blended into oat flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 pinch kosher salt
  • 35 grams drizzly almond butter 2 tablespoons
  • 40 grams maple syrup 2 tablespoons
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cubes dark chocolate I like Hu Kitchen's chocolate bars or gems

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  • Use a microplane to finely grate the zucchini. Then squeeze out all the excess liquid with a paper towel. The zucchini should be about 1/3 cup in size and 45 grams in weight after it's drained. Set this aside.
  • Blend your oats into fine oat flour, then mix together the oat flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
  • In a small measuring cup, whisk together the almond butter, maple syrup, egg and zucchini.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet and whisk again.
  • In a small mug, ramekin or mini dutch oven, pour in the batter and top with the chocolate.
  • Bake at 350°F for 18-23 minutes or until the baked oats are completely risen.
  • Serve immediately!
