Zucchini Muffins


Submitted by werlita

Makes 16 servings

Great muffins for breakfast, or just for snacking. An easy way to get some veggies in. The actual recipe calls for low-fat milk. It also calls for 1/2 cup of canola or vegetable oil, I substituted 1/2 of the oil for no sugar added applesause. (You can substitute all of the oil for applesause too)

Ingredients
3 cups flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
2 eggs
1/2 cup whole milk
1/4 cup applesauce
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup sugar
2 cups zucchini, shredded
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees and place paper liners in muffin tins.

  2. In a large bowl, beat eggs with electric mixer 1 minute. Beat in milk, oil, and sugar. Stir in zucchini until well blended. Add flour mixture to batter a little at a time and stir to mix-it should be a little lumpy. Spoon batter into muffin tins. Sprinkle muffins with sugar.

  3. Bake 20 minutes or until muffin tops are golden brown and spring back when you touch them. Cool muffins on a rack.
