This Low carb zucchini (courgette) brownies recipe is super delicious and fudgy. It is one of the best low carb zucchini desserts I have ever made.
These healthy brownies are made with almond flour, chocolate, butter and zucchini; adding zucchini to this keto brownie recipe makes it so moist and of course healthy.
Moreover, these keto zucchini brownies have an intense chocolate flavour; if you are a chocolate fan like me, you will adore them. Also, adding pecan on top of these brownie bites gives them crunchiness, which will make it impossible for you to resist having another one.
If you have children, they will love these brownie bites; most children do not like eating zucchini, but they will definitely eat these zucchini brownies without even noticing that there is any zucchini in it.
Nutrition Benefits Of Zucchini

An 8x8 pan is 20 servings? I think a regular recipe would be low carb if made to be 20 servings!
