Notes

 
  • Peel the zucchini before grating.
  • Do not squeeze or drain the grated zucchini.
  • The brownies are soft and cake-like rather than fudgy.
  • I stored mine in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week with no problems, though storage time can vary depending on kitchen temperature and humidity.
