Notes

  • Ensure you squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the grated zucchini for the best texture.
  • You can add a handful of chopped nuts or dairy-free chocolate chips for extra flavor and texture.
  • Store any leftover bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
