To make a chocolate zucchini cake, preheat your oven to 350 F. Grease a 9x13 baking pan or two 8-inch pans. Whisk all dry ingredients in a large bowl. If using almond butter, gently warm it until it is easy to stir. Add the wet ingredients, including the zucchini, into the bowl. Stir until just evenly mixed. Smooth into the pan. Bake on the center rack of the oven for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean. Let cool before frosting. Loosely cover and store at room temperature for one day, or refrigerate leftovers for up to a week. You may also freeze slices in an airtight container for up to three months.View Nutrition Facts
