Ingredients
  

  • 2/3 cup old fashioned oats
  • 2/3 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup shredded zucchini
  • 1/4 cup coconut or brown sugar*
  • 1/4 cup cane sugar*
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup almond milk
  • 1/4 TSP fine sea salt
  • 1 TSP mint extract
  • 1 TSP baking powder
  • 1/2 TSP baking soda
  • 1/3 cup chocolate chips I prefer mini

Instructions
 

  • Place the oats in a food processor and pulse until mostly ground.
  • Add in the wheat flour, zucchini, sugars, melted coconut oil, almond milk, sea salt, mint extract, baking powder and baking soda. Process until combined together evenly.
  • Add in the chocolate chips and pulse for about 10 seconds, just until they're mixed in.
  • Chill the dough in the fridge for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Spoon the dough onto the baking sheet, forming around 20 cookies.
  • Bake for 11-14 minutes, until the cookies are lightly browned on the bottoms.
  • Allow the cookies to slightly cool before transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes

*Can sub in the sugars for 1/2 cup maple syrup for a refined sugar version. Note that the cookies will turn out flatter than with the coconut/cane sugar mixture.
