Zucchini Frittata

Zucchini Frittata

Author’s Note – A frittata is an Italian omelet that is typically cooked in olive oil, but I have made some delicious frittatas using only Expeller-Pressed Coconut Oil (EPCO). You could use a combination of olive oil and EPCO if you wanted some olive oil flavor.

No-Bake Chocolate, Coconut, Peanut Butter Cookies

No-Bake Chocolate, Coconut, Peanut Butter Cookies

No-Bake Chocolate, Coconut, Peanut Butter Cookies

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup quick oats*
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

Combine first 4 ingredients in a small pot and bring to a boil. Boil 3 minutes and remove from heat. Stir in peanut butter, oats, and vanilla.

Drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper. I like to store mine in the freezer, but the fridge also works if you don’t want them quite so hard. Makes about 12 cookies.

*You can substitute some dried coconut for the oats, especially if you want gluten-free.
