Zucchini muffins are the perfect way to use up zucchini – make this zucchini bread in a muffin pan and make it plain or add nuts or chocolate chips!

Ingredients

  • ½ cup (119ml) vegetable oil
  • ¾ cup (150g) packed brown sugar
  • ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups (186g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups (approximately 152g) shredded zucchini
  • 1 cup mix-ins (optional, see notes)

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners.

  2. 2

    Add oil, both sugars, eggs, and vanilla extract to a large bowl. Stir until smooth.

  3. 3

    Mix in cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder and salt.

  4. 4

    Stir in flour, mixture will be thick. Add zucchini and stir until combined – mixture will get looser and more pourable after stirring in zucchini. Stir in mix-ins if using.

  5. 5

    Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake 15-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

  6. 6

    Cool slightly before removing from pan.
