ZUCCHINI CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Zucchini Chocolate Chip Cookies image

I love using zucchini in the summertime. This recipe reminds me of a zucchini bread my aunt makes, but I wanted to make cookies for a family get-together because they would be easier to grab and eat. These taste better if you make them the day before. -Melissa Obernesser, Oriskany, New York

Categories     dessert

Time 40m

Yield 12 to 15 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 medium zucchini (5 to 6 ounces), grated
2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup whole-wheat flour (see Cook's Note)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon allspice
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 large egg, at room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup toasted pecans, chopped, optional
Flaky sea salt, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. F Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment.
  • Lay out the grated zucchini on a paper-towel lined plate, to absorb as much water as possible. Set aside.
  • Whisk the oats, flour, salt, baking soda and allspice together in a large bowl.
  • Beat the butter and brown sugar in a separate bowl with an electric mixer (or using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment) on medium speed until light yellow and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and mix until smooth. Add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture and mix on low just until there's no more powdery residue, 15 to 20 seconds, then add the zucchini, chocolate chips and toasted pecans if using and mix on low until there is no dry flour in the dough.
  • Use a 1/4-cup ice cream scoop to scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing at least 1 inch apart. Sprinkle the tops with flaky sea salt if using. Bake until the tops and sides start to brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the sheet for at least 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour*
2 cups whole wheat flour

1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or in a large bowl with a hand mixer, beat together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one by one until completely blended, and mix in the the vanilla.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the flours, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.

  • Add the zucchini and chocolate chips and mix just until incorporated.
  • Scoop the cookies in approximately 2-tablespoon increments, about 2 inches apart, onto an ungreased non-stick cookie sheet or cookie sheet lined with silicone mat. (I recommend a cookie scoop for this step.)
