Ingredients
- 3 cups (720ml) grated zucchini (I used about 2 whole zucchini)
- 2 beaten eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 1 cup (240ml) olive oil (light or mild tasting)
- 2/3 cup real maple syrup
- 1/3 cup raw honey, softened
- 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Preparation
Not specified
Cooking
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the zucchini, eggs, vanilla, olive oil, maple syrup, and honey.
- Stir gently until mixed; set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flours, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
- Stir to combine and make a well in the middle.
- Pour the wet mixture from step one into the well and stir just a few times until barely combined.
- Overmixing makes the muffins tough and hard, so I try to limit myself to 15 big around-the-bowl stirs.
- Pour the batter in a muffin tin greased with nonstick cooking spray or lined with paper cups.
- You should be able to get 6-8 jumbo muffins or 15-16 regular sized muffins.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until the muffins are golden brown and the tops spring back when you press on them.
