Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 8

Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Serve these intergalactic zucchini cookies as an out-of-this-world snack! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
