  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees and line muffin pan with muffin liners. Spray with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
  2. 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).
