Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with parchment paper liners.
- Using the fine side of a box grater, finely grate the zucchini (skin on) onto a clean dish towel or onto a stack of paper towels. Squeeze well to remove the excess water. Add to a large mixing bowl.
- To the bowl with the zucchini, add wet ingredients: pumpkin, eggs, oil, and vanilla. Next add 1 cup of sugar and mix well.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in medium bowl. Mix well.
- Add flour mixture to pumpkin mixture and stir with a fork or whisk until just moistened and incorporated.
- Optional: for extra fluff factor, allow batter to rest for 10-15 minutes.
- Scoop batter into prepared muffin cups, adding approx. ¼ cup to each.
- Bake in preheated oven for 23-25 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick inserted to the center of the muffin.
- Allow muffins 10 minutes to cool in the pan then carefully remove. Allow to cool completely on a wire baking rack before diving in. (Flavors will be more pronounced once fully cooled.) Enjoy!
Notes
- Feeling fancy? you can totally sprinkle some mini chocolate chips into the batter if desired. You can even go for a cupcake vibe and frost these muffins with cream cheese frosting. I'll toss the recipe in the blog post for ya!
