I had initially planned to make Zucchini Halwa for today's post but my older one wanted to bake cookies with Zucchini and so I googled my way through to arrive at my own recipe. She is giving me great ideas these days !
So for Day 2 check out these cookies which are kid approved. My older one helped bake these. I felt that the cookies I made had an after taste of baking soda as I had used 1/2 tsp of it. But my friends and family didn't agree with me. Anyway, the next time, I shall reduce the baking soda and have updated the recipe below as well.
Ingredients -
All Purpose Flour / Maida 1/2 cup
Baking Soda 1/4 tsp
Salt 1/4 tsp
Vegetable/Coconut Oil 2 Tbsp
Sugar 1/2 cup
Coconut Milk 2 Tbsp
Zucchini finely grated 1/2 cup
Rolled Oats 1 cup
Coconut Flakes 1/4 cup
Mini MnMs handful or as desired (Or mini chocolate chips)
Method Of Preparation -
In a mixing bowl, add the flour, salt and baking soda and whisk well.
Add in the grated zucchini, rolled oats and coconut flakes as well.
In a separate bowl, whisk the vegetable oil,sugar and coconut milk until the sugar is dissolved.
Transfer the sugar mixture into the flour mixture and gently mix to make a thick dough. Fold in the MnMs.
Preheat the oven to 375 °F.
Scoop out a tablespoon of the dough and arrange on a parchment paper lined baking tray.
Space them about 2 inches apart though they don't spread out much.
Bake for 15-18 min or until the undersides are brown.
Remove from the oven and cool them on a wire rack.
Upon cooling store them in an air tight container.
