Ingredients

Scale

2 medium zucchinis (about 2 cups grated)
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Grate zucchinis and squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.
In one bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, and sugar. In another bowl, mix eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla until smooth.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture to avoid overmixing, then add grated zucchini until combined.
Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean.
Let cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting.
