How to Make Zucchini Brownies Vegan

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  4. Fold in 2 cups grated zucchini. If the batter seems too dry, add 1-2 tablespoons more applesauce, 1 tablespoon at a time.
  5. Stir in any optional ingredients (see notes).
  6. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. Let cool completely before cutting and serving.
