chocolate cake with apple&zucchini
This recipe is from cakes und kuchen. At first you may wonder how the hell zucchini fits to a chocolate cake. But it is surprising what delicate moisture this cake obtains through this twist. This cake tastes good after having rested for 24 hours. It even keeps well and moist for about a week if you keep it in a closed container.
Ingredients:
- 200 grams flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 0.5 tsp baking soda
- 3 eggs
- 180 grams light brown sugar
- 100 ml. oil
- 100 grams apples, grated
- 100 grams zucchini, grated
- 50 grams bittersweet chocolate, chopped
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 hand walnuts, chopped
- 1 pinch salt
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Prepare a loaf pan (30cm) by greasing it or placing a baking sheet into it. Beat eggs with sugar and oil until fluffy. Add all other ingredients in small batches and mix until the batter is just well mixed. Pour into the pan and bake around 40 minutes. Cool a bit before removing the cake from the pan. I believe this cake will taste even better if you add a ganache once it is cooled.
