This moist chocolate chip, apple & zucchini cake is the perfect way to make sure you are eating your vegetables but still enjoying a sweet treat.
As a Chocolate lover, this is my all-time favorite treat. No one suspected that in the cake i have added Apples & Zucchini 😉
This cake is much lighter than most chocolate cakes. Cake pieces just vanished from dabba.
How to make applesauce:
Peel & chop apples finely. In a deep pan add water. Throw in apple pieces. Add some sugar. Cook on low heat by covering it for about 7-8 minutes. Mash it. Keep aside.
Preheat oven to 180º C for 10 minutes.
Beat Sugar, butter and eggs in a mixer at low speed until well blended. Stir in applesauce. Blend it again.
Combine self raising flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon & salt stirring with a whisk.
Now add the flour mixture to sugar mixture, beating just until moist. Stir in the grated zucchini & apples and chocolate chips.
Spoon batter into baking tin. Grease & dust some flour Bake at 180º C for 40 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out almost clean.
Cool the cake for 10 minutes on a wire rack. Serve warm.
