Categories     Drop Cookies

Time 27m

Yield 1 batch of cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup margarine
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 cup shredded zucchini
1/2 cup shredded carrot

Steps:

  • Cream the margarine and sugar.
  • Add the egg and vanilla; mix well.
  • Add shredded vegetables and mix.
  • Combine the dry ingredients into a bowl.
  • Then add to the creamed mixture; mix well.
  • Drop the dough by teaspoonful onto an ungreased baking sheet.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, grated zucchini and carrots: This will ensure that the cookies are moist and flavorful. If you don't have fresh vegetables, you can use frozen or canned zucchini and carrots, but be sure to drain them well before using.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a slightly crispy exterior.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before enjoying: This will allow the flavors to develop and the cookies to set.

Conclusion:

These zucchini carrot cookies are a delicious and healthy treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you are looking for a sweet snack, give these cookies a try!
