DIRECTIONS
- Heat oven to 350°F.
- In a large bowl, whisk together granulated sweetener, almond flour, 1 cup cocoa powder, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum and salt until any clumps are broken up and ingredients are evenly combined.
- In another large bowl, use a hand mixer on low to combine eggs, ¾ cup grapeseed oil, and vanilla extract. Once initially mixed, increase speed to medium until well mixed and frothy. Stir flour mixture into the egg mixture until completely wet. Using a clean kitchen towel, gently squeeze shredded zucchini to reduce some moisture, then add to batter along with chopped Almond Craze Bars, folding until evenly dispersed.
- Prepare a Bundt pan by brushing all surfaces with 1 teaspoon grapeseed oil, then dusting with 1/2 tablespoon cocoa powder.
- Stir hot coffee into the batter and immediately scrape evenly into the Bundt cake pan. Bake for 30 minutes and cover loosely with foil and bake another 30-45 minutes, or until the cake does not jiggle when moved, and a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
- Allow cake to cool in pan for 15 minutes, remove to a cooling rack until fully cooled, or at least 15 minutes more.
- In a small bowl, combine powdered sweetener with 2 to 3 tablespoons coconut milk, until reaches a drizzle thickness. Mix in coconut shreds and drizzle evenly over Bundt cake. One serving is 1 slice cake (1/16th of the cake) with a scant 2 teaspoons drizzle.
Cooking Tip
The instructions may seem disjointed- why not prepare the pan at the beginning of the recipe? We found that preparing the Bundt pan just before adding the batter helps allow the cake to easily release from the pan when finished baking. You also want to add the hot coffee just before scraping into the pan to bloom the chocolate and enhance the flavor. Note that the coffee should be piping hot to have the best effect on the chocolate.
