Keto & Low Carb Chocolate Zucchini Cake

This chocolate zucchini cake is the best keto, low carb, sugar-free and gluten-free recipe ever. Chocolate zucchini cake is moist and tastes amazing.

My kitchen garden has given me lots of zucchini. It seems zucchini grows very well here. It’s been available since June and it’s still going strong. And I feel lucky because zucchini is such a versatile vegetable. We eat a lot of it this summer, but I confess that my kids don’t like zucchini very much. Usually, they eat zucchini on soups.
I have to find different ways to eat vegetables…

Then I remember that I saw on Pinterest some chocolate cakes recipes made with zucchini. I don’t know if I’ve told that I absolutely LOVE chocolate desserts. And I’ve tried a chocolate zucchini recipe made with flour. Chocolate cake is one of my favorite cakes. But this time I wanted to try something healthier. I wanted a low carb and sugar-free recipe.

I’m not fundamentalist in what concern to my food. I always try to make healthy meals but sometimes I can eat everything that I want…
This chocolate zucchini cake is so decadent and the most amazing is that you can eat the whole cake if you want because it is low carb and sugar-free. The zucchini is well-hidden and undetectable. So it´s perfect for children. They will not even notice that inside this cake has a vegetable.

This cake is very simple and quick to prepare. To make this cake, first, you will need to shred zucchini. The zucchini makes this cake super rich and moist. You will need two bowls: one for the dry ingredients (coconut flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder) and another for the wet ingredients (eggs, sweetener, vanilla extract). Mix the wet and the dry ingredients separately and then join them. Finally, add the shredded zucchini.

I recommend that you enjoy a slice if this amazing chocolate zucchini cake with fresh berries. Hope you enjoy this real piece of heaven!!!
