description
This cake was a super positive detection because the main ingredient is the zucchini. A vegetable rich in water that, using it inside the dough, allows to obtain a very soft and moist consistency that melts in the mouth. In short, a delicious cake with very few calories, without eggs, without butter, without gluten, without lactose and lots of vegetables!
