Print Recipe

Moist and chewy chocolate chip zucchini blondies are a delicious way to sneak veggies into a sweet treat. Perfect for dessert or snacking, these bars are loaded with chocolate chips and subtly spiced.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 cup shredded zucchini, excess moisture squeezed out
  • 3/4 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mix melted butter and brown sugar until smooth.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just combined.
  6. Fold in the shredded zucchini and chocolate chips.
  7. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  8. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  9. Allow to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares.

Notes

  • Squeeze out as much moisture from the zucchini as possible to avoid soggy blondies.
  • You can add chopped nuts for extra texture.
  • Use dairy-free chocolate chips and vegan butter to make this recipe vegan.
