Notes
Step 1
The best way to test if a cake is cooked is a knife coming out clean through it. Please use that here too.
Step 2
I find that my baked goods are done a bit before the time any recipe specifies. You are the best judge of your baked product. Decide the time according to your oven and the size of your baked product. Smaller, flatter goods take lesser time!
Step 3
I've been asked this many many times... so.... No, there is no substitute for Zucchini in this recipe.
Step 4
I've used palm sugar in this recipe but you are free to use any sugar you might have at home. I personally prefer palm sugar over others so I tend to use that more often.
Step 5
Use dairy-free cocoa powder and chocolate chips to make these vegan!
