- 1/2 tsp Salt

- Melt butter in a small bowl.
- Add in the applesauce. honey, egg, vanilla extract, melted butter, and finally the grated carrots or zucchini to the bowl and mix together well.
- Use a large trigger scoop to drop dough onto baking sheets with oil or parchment paper. Make sure to flatten out cookies so that they bake evenly!
- Bake 15-20 minutes until the tops are golden brown.
- Let these cool on the pan then place flat into a freezer bag. Don't stack them on top of each other because they will more than likely stick together! Once they are fully frozen you can combine the cookies into one bag.
