Instructions
Prep:
- Preheat the oven to 400F and grease or use liners in a 6-jumbo muffin pan or a regular 12-muffin pan.
- Use a cheese grater to grate the zucchini. Place the grated zucchini on a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out the excess moisture.
Make the batter:
- In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, poppy seeds, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, whisk the yogurt, melted coconut oil or butter, lemon juice and zest, and eggs.
- Gradually, add the dry ingredients to wet ingredient bowl, and use a spatula to fold them in to combine. Once the mixture is cohesive, add the grated zucchini to the bowl and fold it into the batter.
- Scoop the mixture into the prepared muffin pan, filling them almost to the top.
Bake:
- Bake the jumbo muffins for 5 minutes at 400F. Lower the oven temperature to 350F and bake them for an additional 20 to 22 minutes. They are done when tops are golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Bake regular-sized muffins for 5 minutes at 400F. Lower the oven temperature to 350F and bake them for an additional 15 to 17 minutes. They are done when tops are golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool down to room temperature before removing them from the pan.
- Store leftover muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Warm them up slightly in the microwave for 15 to 30 seconds.
