Info

If carrot cake works, why not courgette? If you've got any courgettes that need using up or just want to pack some extra veg in, this chocolate courgette loaf cake is perfect. Sweetened with our organic agave syrup, you'll notice that this loaf is incredibly light and moist, all thanks to the courgette!

150g courgette grated (1 large)

60g  Biona Organic Coconut Oil

¼ tsp of bicarbonate of soda

50g of Cocoa Powder

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius
  2. Grate the courgette and then place in a muslin cloth or tea towel over the sink and squeeze to drain as much liquid out from the courgettes as possible.

  5. Sift in the flour and add the baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and cocoa powder
