Number of Servings: 12

Ingredients

    4 serving Bob's Red Mill Almond Flour - per 1/4 Cup
    8 tbsp Bob's Red Mill Coconut Flour (by BABYHUNT)
    5 tbsp Cocoa, dry powder, unsweetened
    3 tbsp Hemp Hearts- raw shelled hemp seeds
    4 large Egg, fresh, whole, raw
    .5 cup Splenda No Calorie Sweetener Granular (for baking) (by VALLIEGAL)
    2 serving Truvia Natural Sweetener
    1.5 tsp Cinnamon, ground
    1 serving 1 Cup Warm Water (by TLHAGEN)
    4 tbsp Coconut Oil - Nutiva Organic Extra-Virgin Coconut Oil
    1 serving sea salt
    1 cup, mashed Zucchini
    3 square (1 oz) Baking chocolate, unsweetened, squares

Tips

may want to add less sweetener it was too sweet to me. Also, eggs are to be room temp.


Directions

mix wet and dry ingredients separate.

the sea salt is 1/4 tsp. may add 1/2 tsp. baking powder. The zucchini was actually grated, didn't have that option in listing. Then mix together and place in greased muffin paper lined muffin pan, bake at 325 for insulated, 350 for non insulated, for 25 minutes.

great to stop sugar cravings, very filling. Not the best recipe I have tried, I converted it from a recipe that used flax seed meal and I replaced it with almond meal/flour and hemp because I was out of flax. Not as low carb as I wanted but still very low and sugar free. All healthy fats.

Pic looks more like meatloaf! LOL
