Finely grate the zucchini and place in a sieve in the sink. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt, tossing to combine. Let drain 1 hour, then squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a large baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
Combine the coconut and sliced almonds in a food processor and process until they resemble oat flakes. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the almond flour, coconut flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and remaining salt.
In a large bowl, beat the butter with the sweetener until lightened and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract, then beat in the squeezed zucchini.
Add the flour mixture and beat until the dough comes together. Stir in the keto dark chocolate chips and pecans by hand.
Roll into 18 balls, each about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Set on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Press down with the palm of your hand to 1 inch thick. They will spread a bit as they bake.
Bake 15 to 18 minutes, until golden brown. They will still be very soft when you remove them from the oven. Allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet.
