Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups flour
1 cup quick-cooking oatmeal
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, ground
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1 cup zucchini, finely grated

Steps:

  • Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Combine flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg in a mixing bowl. Using two knives, a pastry blender, stand mixture or your fingers, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside 1/2 cup of this mixture for topping. Stir in baking powder and salt into remaining mixture.
  • Beat eggs, milk and zucchini in a small bowl. Add to dry ingredients all at once, stirring just until moistened.
