Next time you need a meal prep friendly breakfast idea, add these chocolate zucchini breakfast cookies to your must-try list!

These turned out absolutely delicious and my toddler LOVED them! Packed with fiber and veggies, so it actually kept him full. Anything chocolate is a win in his book. Will definitely be keeping these on regular rotation cause they were so easy to whip up!

1 cup rolled oats
¼ cup almond flour
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
½ tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
½ cup unsweetened applesauce
¼ cup peanut butter or almond butter
1 egg
2 tbsp honey
½ tsp vanilla extract
½ cup finely shredded zucchini squeezed very well to remove moisture
2-3 tbsp chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Finely shred zucchini and squeeze thoroughly in a paper towel or dish towel to remove excess moisture.
In a bowl, mix well: oats, almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

Fold in zucchini and chocolate chips.
Scoop about 2 tbsp of dough per cookie onto the baking sheet and gently flatten slightly.
