12 steps

Set oven to broil.
Finely grate the zucchini.
Line your cookie sheet with parchment paper or a bit of olive oil. Place the grated zucchini on the sheet and mix in a little ground cinnamon.
Bake in the oven for about 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a bowl, mix together the following ingredients: date puree, eggs, unsweetened applesauce and water (the quantity will vary depending on the flour you use).
It should now be time to take your zucchini out of the oven and then set it at 350°F (180°C).
Right, back to our bowl. Add the vanilla, baking soda, baking powder and cinnamon. You can wait for the little bubbling effect if you like and then mix everything together.
Finally, stir in all the remaining ingredients: flour (of your choice, with or without gluten), chia seeds, zucchini, pecans and organic whole and soft dried cranberries.
Yes, yes, yes, take your time to ensure everything is thoroughly mixed. If you feel there’s not quite enough liquid, add a bit of water… Trust your instinct. Some types of flour absorb more water than others ;-)
Lightly grease the cake pan (if you don’t, everything will stick) and then pour your mixture into the pan. (What did I use? Coconut oil.)
If you’re up for it, you can garnish with loads of dried cranberries and pecans. Yumski!
Pop that beauty into the oven for about 40 minutes (45 minutes if you’re using gluten-free all-purpose flour) and then allow to cool. Oh my, oh my, how I love that sweet smell of happiness!

FAQ

Can I swap chia seeds for flax seeds and vice versa?

Yes, always. You can also use hemp seeds.

Can I use another type of flour than the one specified in the recipe?

Yes, you can simply use any type of flour you have on hand.

What can I use as a substitute for one egg?

There are several options:

1 tbsp. ground chia seeds + 3 tbsp. water,
2 tbsp. ground flaxseed + 2 tbsp. water,
½ mashed banana,
Egg substitute (yes, it’s available at grocery stores, in the organic section).

Note that the texture of your recipes will be slightly different… but they’ll still be 100% delicious

What can I use as a substitute for one type of nut?

Simply any other type of nut you have in the cupboard (almonds, cashews, pecans, etc.). For example, if you don’t have any walnuts, you can use pecans. The important thing is not to tear your hair out!
