These easy gluten free zucchini brownies use chocolate chips and make the best brownies! Adding zucchini makes this recipe a healthier alternative. It's a simple way to add some vegetables to your sweets.
I have lots of zucchini in the garden and I'm always looking for ways to use it. I'm sneaking it into anything I can at this point. The zucchini makes these brownies extra moist and delicious.
If you peel the green skin from the zucchini no one will even notice it's in the brownies. This is perfect for picky eaters and getting extra vegetables into your diet.

What do zucchini brownies taste like?
They taste just like regular brownies. I think the zucchini actually makes them a bit more moist and tender. The zucchini doesn't alter the flavor of the brownies. If you peel the green skin from the zucchini no one will even notice these brownies have zucchini in them!
Can zucchini brownies be frozen?
Yes! I like to bake the brownies, then when they have cooled I cut them into squares. I store individual squares of the brownies in the freezer for a quick treat or lunch snack later.
In a freezer safe container or bag they should last for up to one month in your freezer. I microwave them so they are warm to have with ice cream. It also works to let them thaw naturally in your lunch.
How do I store zucchini brownies?
I let the brownies cool and then cut them into squares. I then either cover the baking dish or store the brownies individually in baggies. The brownies can be left out for a couple of days and then will either need to go in the refrigerator or be frozen.
