  • cup nut butter I did peanut butter but have used almond as well
  • cup maple syrup
  • 1 egg

  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup cocoa powder

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups finely shredded zucchini
  • ¼-½ cups chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a food processor, grind oats until a coarse flour is formed. Add cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda. Pulse a few times to mix.
  • In a large bowl, whisk syrup, nut butter and olive oil together. Add the egg and extract and whisk again. Sir in the zucchini and add the dry ingredients until JUST mixed.
