Mini gluten free zucchini cakes ingredients:
- Peanut butter-You can for sure use almond butter as well. This is what helps give these paleo zucchini cakes texture as well as holds everything together.
- Eggs-This is your binder for the recipe. Do not skip!
- Grated zucchini-I use this zucchini grater HERE.
- Maple syrup-To sweeten it up.
- Cinnamon-Just a dash to add some flavor.
- Sea salt-To balance out the sweetness.
- Baking soda-To help these cakes rise.
- Dairy free chocolate-I like Hu or enjoy life. You can use regular chocolate if you are not dairy free.
How to make:
- First, preheat the oven to 350.
- Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix until smooth.
- Next, spray your silicone bundt cake molds with avocado oil. This will prevent the gluten free zucchini cakes from sticking.
- Now, divide the batter amongst the 4 molds.
- Bake for 33 minutes or until you can put a fork in the zucchini cakes and no batter comes out.
- Let the cakes sit in the mold for 10 minutes before removing.
What kind of mold should I use for these paleo zucchini cakes?
- I LOVE these silicone molds, it makes it so much easier to clean.
