Ingredients

Scale

1.5 cups Grated Zucchini
1/2 cup Natural Peanut Butter
2 scoops Vanilla Protein Powder
1.5 cups Oat Flour or Almond Flour
1/3 cup Pure Maple Syrup
2 Large Eggs
2 tablespoons Avocado Oil
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt

  2. In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and add peanut butter, maple syrup, and avocado oil. Mix until smooth
  3. Fold the grated zucchini into the wet ingredients
  4. In another bowl, sift together oat flour, protein powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt
  5. Combine the dry ingredients with the wet mixture and fold gently until just mixed
  6. Pour the batter into a parchment-lined loaf pan, smooth the top, and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 45 to 55 minutes
