Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, beat butter and sugars until well combined.
  3. Add egg and vanilla extract and mix until well-combined.
  4. Add zucchini and mix in until combined.
  5. Add the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Stir in just until combined.
  6. Stir in oats, chocolate chips, and nuts, if using.
  7. Drop by rounded teaspoon 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  8. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until light golden brown around edges.
  9. 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.
