Instructions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees and line muffin pan with muffin liners. Spray with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
In a large bowl whisk together the honey, egg, vanilla and yogurt. Mix until yogurt is well incorporated into the ingredients. Stir in cooled butter and zucchini (remove moisture from zucchini by blotting with paper towels). In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, EAS protein powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt and baking soda. Fold in dry ingredients into wet ingredients with the walnuts (optional) just until combined. Don't over mix. Fill muffin liners with the dough and bake for 15-17 minutes. Cool and enjoy!
