Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or use silicone baking mats.

Step 2

Begin by grating the zucchini. Transfer to a paper towel or clean dish towel to gently blot and soak up excess moisture. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter, brown sugar, and sugar until light and creamy, about 3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the egg, vanilla extract, and maple syrup. Beat until well combined.

Step 5

Mix in the oatmeal, flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Once it is well mixed, stir in the grated zucchini and chocolate chips.

Step 6

Use a medium cookie scoop (or heaping 1 1/2 tablespoons) to distribute heaping scoops about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.

Step 7

Bake for 13-15 minutes, rotating the sheets halfway though, until the edges are set and middles just start to set. Cool on the baking sheets for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
