2/3 cup powdered jaggery
1 cup shredded and squeezed dry zucchini

1/4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt

Instructions

Dry ingredients

Whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon in a mixing bowl and set aside.

Prepping the zucchini

Wash and pat dry the zucchini.
Shred the zucchini and squeeze the shredded zucchini until it feels almost dry to the touch.
Set aside.

Making chia gel

To the bowl of your stand mixer, add chia seeds and oat milk.
Mix well and let it sit for 10 minutes.
After 10 mins, the seeds would have bloomed and the mixture will be gelatinous.
This is our chia gel.

Preheating

While the chia sits, preheat the oven to 180 C or 350 F.
Grease a 9 by 5 loaf pan and line it with parchment paper. Set aside.

Wet ingredients

Now, add the oil, agave, jaggery powder and vanilla, shredded zucchini to the bowl.
Attach the whisk attachment to the mixer.
Whisk the mixture until it is well incorporated.
Mixing wet and dry ingredients
Tip in the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and whisk well until you see no streaks of flour.
When done, add the nuts and seeds.
Using a silicon spatula, gently fold in the nuts into the batter.

Baking the bread

Pour the batter into the lined loaf pan.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350 F (180 C) for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Slicing

When the bread is done baking, let it cool on a wire rack.
Wait for the bread to cool completely.
Invert the bread upside down and slice through with a serrated knife.v
