Clean Chocolate Chip Cookies



Ingredients:
2 MASHED bananas (squeeze those suckers good!)
1/4 cup of coconut oil
1/4 cup of agave nectar
1/2 tsp of vanilla extract
1 cup of rolled oats
2/3 cups of brown rice flour (this was tricky for someone who doesn't have that measurement cup)
1/4 tsp of baking soda
1/2 cup of unsweetened shredded cocounut
1/2 tsp of sea salt
as many chocolate chips as you want, 1/4 cup or more. I don't use chocolate chips sparingly.... I packed those suckers in.

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees!
2. Im medium bowl, combine mashed bananas, oil, agave nectar, and vanilla extract. Blend well!
3. In another medium bowl combine dry ingredients: rolled oats, flour, baking soda, coconut and sea salt.
4. Combine the two bowls together and then add chocolate chips.

Do NOT make big cookies, keep em small so that they cook through all the way. No need to roll them or anything, just drop onto the cookie sheet and pop in the oven for 8-9 mins if you have electric oven and 14 mins in a gas oven. I know that my oven cooks at lightning speed so I kept a close watch and took them out 8 mins later. Use your baking judgement ladies.

Makes about 1 1/2 dozen cookies or so, but I think I got almost 25 outta it!

Chocolate Zucchini Cake

So who said that veggies and chocolate don't go together? Because my taste buds would say otherwise!! The recipe posted below is a little different then the original one I found from http://www.speedbumpkitchen.com BUT just as good, the only reason it's different was because I already had these items in my house. All in all, it's ridiculously good and I know what I will be making for the holidays!
So without further ado, here is your Chocolate Zucchini Cake:
