Oatmeal Zucchini Cookies
Oatmeal Zucchini Cookies combine shredded zucchini with oats, flour, and coconut flakes for a moist, textured cookie balanced by semisweet chocolate chips. The coconut oil and brown sugar contribute a subtle sweetness and rich texture, while the zucchini adds moisture without overpowering the flavor. These cookies bake to a soft, slightly golden edge and cool to a tender chew. They're a practical way to use fresh zucchini in a baked treat that holds up well stored or frozen.
