The brownies are thick and cake-like. In fact, you can easily convert the recipe to a sheet cake by using a 13 x 9 pan instead of a jelly roll pan.

Extra tip: they freeze well. Make a few extra batches to use up zucchini, store them in airtight containers in the freezer, and label them. You’ll be glad you did when it comes time to make school lunches.

Prep time: about 15 minutes
Bake time: 25-30 minutes, divided
Makes about 35 brownies
