Time 35m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned into measuring cup and leveled-off
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter, melted
1 cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 medium (9 oz) zucchini, grated (no need to wring dry)
½ cup plus 2 tablespoons chocolate chips
⅔ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and set rack in the middle position. Generously coat a muffin pan generously with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and whisk to combine. Stir in the zucchini.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the zucchini mixture and stir until just combined. Stir in ½ cup of the chocolate chips and all of the nuts (if using).
  • Using a large spoon or ice cream scoop, divide the batter into the muffin wells, filling each almost completely. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips onto the muffins, pressing them in lightly so they adhere. Bake for 20 to 22 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to continue cooling. Serve warm or room temperature.
  • The muffins are best served on the same day they are made, but will keep, wrapped in foil, at room temperature for 2 days.
  • Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The muffins can be frozen in an airtight container or sealable plastic bag for up to 3 months. Thaw for 3 - 4 hours on the countertop before serving. To reheat, wrap individual muffins in aluminum foil and place in a preheated 350°F oven until warm.

Yield 24 muffins, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 eggs
6 ounces fat free Greek yogurt
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 zucchini, grated
3 cups whole wheat flour

Steps:

  • 1.) Preheat oven to 350. Spray/line muffin pan.
  • 2.) Beat eggs until light any foamy, about 3 minutes.
  • 3.) Add sugars, oil/yogurt, and zukes. I didn't dry off the veggies, and everything turned out fine. Combine with a spatula.
  • 4.) Add dry ingredients, continue to combine with your spatula until completely incorporated.
  • 5.) Bake for 20 minutes. I used a cookie scoop to portion the muffins, two scoops should fill the individual spaces. Also, instead of making more muffins, I put the remainder of the dough into an 8" square pan-to take to work tomorrow. Do not over bake.
