• 1 Cup Raw Almonds – Packaged Bulk Aisle 1
• 1 Generous Cup Soft & Pitted Noor Dates – Packaged Bulk
• 1/2 Tsp. Simply Organic Pure Vanilla Extract – Aisle 2
• 1/2 Tsp. Frontier Organic Nutmeg – Bulk Herbs & Spices

Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or waxed paper. Place the almonds in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process into fine crumbs. Add dates, a few at a time, processing well after each addition. Add vanilla extract, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt.

At first the mixture will just look like bread crumbs; it will come together in a ball. If it doesn’t come together, add a few extra dates. Remove the cookie dough from the food processor and mix in the shredded zucchini and a half a cup of flaked coconut with your hands until well combined. Form the dough into about 15-inch balls.
