Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 1 piece large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup zucchini, grated
- 0.75 cup raisins
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 cup optional: chopped walnuts or pecans
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until incorporated. Do not overmix.
Step 6
Gently fold in the grated zucchini, raisins, rolled oats, and nuts if using.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may appear slightly soft, but they will firm up as they cool.
Step 9
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve and enjoy your delicious Zucchini Raisin Cookies, or store them in an airtight container for up to 5 days!
