Ingredients

1 medium apple, peeled

1 cup zucchini, unpeeled

1½ cup wholemeal flour

¼ cup rolled oats

⅓ cup cacao powder

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

1 pinch salt

1 large egg

2 tbsp olive oil

½ cup almond milk (or milk of choice)

1 tsp vanilla essence

¼ cup maple syrup

½ cup dark chocolate baking chips

Method:

  1. Preheat oven to 160oC and line a muffin tray with cupcake liners.
  2. Finely grate zucchini and apple, squeezing out the excess juice as best you can. Use a paper towel for excess moisture and set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, mix dry ingredients: wholemeal flour, oats, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together wet ingredients: egg, olive oil, milk, vanilla, and maple syrup.
  5. Combine dry ingredients with wet ingredients.
  6. Add grated apple and zucchini, and choc chips, gently folding until combined.
  7. Use a spoon to evenly distribute mixture into muffin tin.
  8. Cook for 20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean, then rest for 10 minutes and enjoy!

Why it’s good for you:

  • Rolled oats and wholemeal flour are packed with fibre and contain protein and essential vitamins and minerals, including B vitamins, iron, zinc, magnesium, phosphorus, manganese and copper.
  • The apple and zucchini in this recipe makes it a great way to help you reach your two fruit and five veg a day, as well as being a great source of fibre!
