Vegan Zucchini Snack Cake (revisited)

Vegan Zucchini Snack Cake // take a megabite

I made this snack cake in 2010! When I first moved into the flat I live in now. Life is completely different now (hell yes), but this cake (and Elliotto) have stayed awesome. SO! Since I made this cake before, I’ve dealt with a broken fridge, mini ant families x 3, flooding through my windows, flooding in the basement, quit one job, got another one, cut my hair, fell off my bike, broke probably like 19.5 glasses, made a bunch of ice cream, gotten more tattoos (valentine mermaid, s’mores campfire, lighting bolt, XO, arrows, popsicle & ice cream cone), started running, started therapy, figured some things out, didn’t figure some things out and here we are! With cake! Cool.

Anyhow! This time when I made this cake, I cut down on the sugar and used some graham flour. Tastes like a breakfast dream, if you ask me. I’m all “NO DESSERT ‘TIL PORTLAND!” But I’ll eat zucchini cake and call it a breakfast and not a dessert and will sample cookie dough, but not eat the cookies and I’m going to Portland tomorrow and I CAN’T WAIT!
