Number Of Ingredients 14

cooking spray
2 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate
2 cups grated zucchini
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
¾ cup egg substitute
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups white sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
¾ (1 ounce) square semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray 2 mini muffin tins with cooking spray.
  • Melt chocolate squares in a large microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each melting, about 1 minute. Stir in zucchini, applesauce, egg substitute, and vanilla extract; beat well until combined.
  • Mix sugar, all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl. Add chocolate mixture; stir just until combined. Fold chocolate chips into the batter.
  • Scoop batter into prepared muffin tins.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 15 minutes.
