Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cups shredded zucchini 1 medium, squeezed
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 ¼ cups quick oats
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup Chopped Pecans optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat butter and sugars until well combined.
- Add egg and vanilla extract and mix until well-combined.
- Add zucchini and mix in until combined.
- Add the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Stir in just until combined.
- Stir in oats, chocolate chips, and nuts, if using.
- Drop by rounded teaspoon 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until light golden brown around edges.
- Cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes and then remove to wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Butter: I use salted butter. If using unsalted butter, increase salt to 3/4 teaspoon.
- Brown sugar: Light brown sugar or dark brown sugar will work.
- Zucchini: I use the small hole on the box grater. I squeeze the zucchini and then measure it. The liquid with the shredded zucchini is great in zucchini bread, but it will make your cookies flat.
- All-purpose flour: It's important to properly measure the flour. To properly measure it, either weigh it or sift/stir it to break it up. Lightly spoon it into the measuring cup and level.
- Chocolate chips: I use semi-sweet chocolate chips, but milk chocolate chips or dark chocolate chips will also work.
- Nuts: Pecans or walnuts work well. You can also omit the nuts.
