Chocolate Muffins with Zucchini

I made these this morning and adapted them from the Happy Herbivore's version. 

Ingredients

1¼ cups whole wheat pastry flour

¼ cup unsweetened cocoa

1¼ tsp baking powder

¾ tsp baking soda

½ tsp salt

1 tsp cinnamon

2 T ground flax seed mixed with 6 T water - mix and then set aside

½ cup raw sugar (I used organic evaporated cane juice)

½ cup unsweetened applesauce

¼ rice milk cup 

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup shredded zucchini

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F. 

Spray paper or silicone liners with non-stick spray.

Whisk flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon together. 

In another bowl, mix the ground flax seed mix with applesauce and sugar. Add in rice milk , vanilla, and zucchini. Stir until evenly combined. Add flour mix to wet mix and stir until just combined. Spoon batter into greased muffin pan and bake 18-20 minutes. 

These muffins can be frozen.
