While I do not personally have issues with gluten, I know several people close to me that do. So I love when I find the time to test out gluten-free recipes because it is not always as simple as exchanging the flour for gluten-free flour. Gluten-free can tend to leave baked goods dry and crumbly. We certainly do not want that! That's why I love how moist these brownies are.

Zucchini is such a wonderful vegetable that can be added to desserts and bread. Check out this Double Chocolate Zucchini Banana Bread recipe. Zucchini is packed full of moisture and is great when pairing with a gluten-free recipe. It adds moisture back into these brownies and makes them a healthy dessert option.
