*You may use your own trusted gluten free blend, but for best results use my recommended blend.
**Add 2-3 more tablespoons of chocolate chips for a thicker consistency. Remember it will thicken as it cools.
NOTES ON THE RECIPE:
1. Dark, dark, DARK - Dark brown sugar will really enhance the deep flavor of the chocolate, but light brown sugar can be used as well. Coffee granules will also bring out the chocolate flavor, but feel free to omit.
2. High quality flour - As in all my recipe, opt for a high quality all-purpose flour that has a superfine grind to it. I recommend using my preferred blend since it has a lesser amount of xanthan gum, but you may use whatever blend you favor. If using a pre-blended mix, I do suggest one that does not already contain xanthan gum. That way you can control the amount added.
3. Correct measurements - I rarely weigh my flour when baking. I just make sure to gently scoop with a spoon into a measuring cup and then level off with a knife. Do not pack the flours. However, do pack the brown sugar and shredded zucchini when measuring. Also, the banana puree should almost be spilling over the measuring cup.
4. Ganache in a bind - Ganache usually calls for chocolate and heavy cream. I discovered with this recipe that heavy cream isn't necessary. I just warmed up milk, added some butter (to give it extra fat content) and then stirred in the chocolate chips. The ganache turned out perfectly. It is important to let it sit a few minutes before dipping so that it isn't too runny. Be patient. It should set. And if using sprinkles, dip all the muffins first and then add the sprinkles, starting with the first muffins you dipped. Otherwise, the sprinkles will run off the sides while the ganache is setting.
