    FAQs:

    Can I use quick oats instead of rolled oats?
    Yes! Quick oats will work, but the texture will be slightly softer.

    Can I make this nut-free?
    Absolutely. Use sunflower seed butter or tahini instead of peanut butter.

    Do I need to squeeze the zucchini?
    Nope! Just grate it and add the moisture directly into the batter – it helps keep the oats soft and fluffy.
