Lovely cake made with GF flour and in muffin trays.
Yum! Everyone wanted more! So moist and rich
This cake is so rich and yummy! When cold, I loved it spread with some butter
I made for sons birthday cake. Excellent for hidden vegetable amongst all the sugar treats! Iced up well with buttercream icing.
Love a sneaky vegetable recipe. Really lovely texture and very chocolatey. I also just left the zucchini in the bowl and skipped step one, added vanilla instead of the spices. Will be making again, thank you!
This is a great cake. Its a good way to use up the excess Zucchinis from the garden. Also great as cupcakes for school lunch boxes.
I dont remeove Zucchini in step 1. I just leave in the bowl while I go ahead with the other steps. And I dont add coffee.
Thanks for a great recipe!
Great birthday cake!
I blitz the zucchini twice and leave in bowl like others do. I omit the coffee and use milk. I made this for a 9 year old birthday cake and everyone raved about it. This is one of my "go to" cakes. Love it.
Really great cake. I took advice from the other comments and left the zucchini in the bowl through the whole process
Brilliant moist cake - made it for my son's birthday cake - disco cake. Hidden goodness in every bite! I used a teaspoon of cinnamon instead of mixed spice and works a treat. Definitely going on the favourite list - even the most fussiest of eaters thought it was awesome. Thanks for this easy no fuss cake.
This cake is awesome, super easy to make and looks and tastes great. I didn't take the zucchini out after step 1 either and the kids had absolutely no idea that there was any in it. After school holidays I'll be making it again and baking it in cupcake size so the kids can take it to school (they requested it
)
