When you're ready to bake, in a large bowl, mix together the ground flax and chia, the cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, guar gum and sea salt.
In a small bowl beat the eggs with the oil, the vanilla, and the sugars. Grate the zucchini into the bowl with the wet ingredients and mix the walnuts well with the dry.
Add the soaked flours and the wet ingredients to the dry, mix well then fold in the chocolate chips.
Let batter sit for at least thirty minutes while oven preheats to 350, to allow the guar gum to set up.

Our family is gluten, dairy, corn, soy and nightshade free and feel much better for the diet change. I decided early on to make cooking and baking a hobby so I wouldn't feel hard done by having to make everything from scratch. Our diet is so much better now. I'm thankful to this and other recipe sites and the many living without bloggers for their great ideas and inspiration. I've chosen not to become a premium member so thank you everyone for reviewing my recipes. I hope they were helpful. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg">
