Soft Baked Zucchini Chip Cookies
First thing’s first. Let’s get a peek at the beautiful cookie we’re about to create!
Now, before we get into the tasty parts, let’s gather our ingredients. You won’t need a magic wand for this, just some creativity and a dash of love!
Ingredients
- 1 cup of grated zucchini (about 1 medium zucchini)
- 1 cup of brown sugar
- 1/2 cup of granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup of melted coconut oil (or unsalted butter if you prefer)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1 cup of chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Get that temperature up, because who wants cold cookies?!
- In a mixing bowl, combine the melted coconut oil, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix until it’s smooth sailing.
- Crack in the egg and add the vanilla extract. Whisk it all together like you’re performing a culinary symphony.
- In another bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly combine the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Don’t rush this; we want a cookie batter that resembles a creamy dream!
- Fold in that grated zucchini like it’s that secret ingredient your grandma told you about and then add the chocolate chips. Yes, chocolate chips are always a good idea!
- Using a spoon or your hands (we don’t judge), scoop out spoonfuls of batter and drop them onto a lined baking sheet. Leave some space between them; they need room to groove!
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes. Watch them carefully; we want them to be soft and chewy!
- Once they’re golden and tantalizing, take them out and let them cool for a few minutes before devouring the entire batch. Share if you must, but nobody likes a cookie hog!
And there you have it! Soft Baked Zucchini Chip Cookies that will not only satisfy your sweet tooth but also put a little green goodness into your life. So, grab a glass of milk and let the cookie munching begin!
