Gluten Free Chocolate Zucchini Muffins

This is the perfect way to use up all that zucchini from your garden!

2 cups sorghum flour or gf all purpose flour mix
1.5 teaspoons xanthan gum
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup canola oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup applesauce
3 cups shredded unpeeled zucchini
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Preheat to 350 deg
Spray two 8 inch loaf pans or two 12 cup muffin tins

Place four, xanthan gum, salt, baking soda, and cocoa powder in medium bowl. Use wire whisk to combine.

In large bowl, place oil, sugars, eggs, and vanilla. Mix with hand mixer until fluffy. Stir in applesauce and shredded zucchini. Stir in flour mixture until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips.

Divide batter and bake for 50 minutes for loaves or 25-30 minutes for muffins or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Allow to cool on wire rack for 10 minutes before turning out.

Enjoy!
