Perfect after school snack. Feel free to sub some of the chocolate chips for raisins or craisins. I stuck with chocolate to make sure the kids would eat them.
Ingredients
  • 1 egg
  • ¼ cup coconut oil
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup finely grated zucchini
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1½ cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup quick cooking oats
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon powder
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. In a mixing bowl combine the dry ingredients: the oats, wheat flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon. Set aside.
  2. In the bowl of a stand-mixer, beat the egg until frothy. Add the white and brown sugar and stir until mixed together. Add the coconut oil and yogurt. Stir until combined. Add the zucchini and blend together. Let the mixer slowly stir the wet ingredients while you slowly add in the dry ingredients. When the dough is mixed, add the chocolate chips.
  3. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Scoop out a small spoonful of dough and roll into a ball in your hands. Place on the cookie sheet, leaving about an inch between the balls.
  4. Cook for 10-12 minutes until the center is cooked through.
