How to Make Zucchini Oatmeal Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (113g) shortening and 1/2 cup (100g) honey until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 1 large egg until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup (150g) grated zucchini, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Stir in 1 1/2 cups (150g) rolled oats and 1/2 cup (60g) raisins (or other dried fruit).
  7. Drop by rounded teaspoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges.
  9. Let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
