These one-bowl zucchini brownies are melt-in-your-mouth moist and gooey, and so incredibly easy! The trick simply lies in good quality ingredients and some quick prep. Shred a couple zucchini (skin on), melt your chocolate chips, then combine them in a heaping big bowl with creamy almond butter and a handful of pantry staples. Whip it all up until everything is blended well, and smooth it into a baking pan. If living a lower fat lifestyle try subbing in PB2 in lieu of the almond butter.

In a little over 30 minutes, you will have the most irresistibly fudgy, fabulous chocolate brownies made from scratch, with a sneaky veggie surprise. Have fun fooling kids and adults alike into trying something new!
