Instructions
 

Prepare the Oven

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a muffin tray with paper liners. Keep it aside.

Grate the Zucchini

  • Wash the zucchini well. Grate it using a box grater. Lightly squeeze extra water.

Mix Dry Ingredients

  • Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon to a bowl. Whisk gently.

Beat Eggs and Sugar

  • In another bowl, add eggs and sugars. Whisk until smooth and slightly fluffy.

Add Oil and Vanilla

  • Pour oil and vanilla into the egg mixture. Mix until well combined.

Add Zucchini and Milk

  • Add grated zucchini and milk. Stir gently until mixed evenly.

Combine Wet and Dry

  • Slowly add dry ingredients to wet ingredients. Fold gently. Do not overmix.

Add Optional Mix-ins

  • Add walnuts or chocolate chips if using. Fold lightly into the batter.

Fill Muffin Cups

  • Spoon batter into liners. Fill each about three-quarters full.

Bake the Muffins

  • Bake for 20 to 22 minutes. A toothpick should come out clean.

Cool Before Serving

  • Remove from oven. Let muffins cool for ten minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Do not fully squeeze zucchini. Moisture is important.
  • Use oil instead of butter for softer muffins.
  • Add nutmeg for extra warm flavor.
  • Use whole wheat flour for a healthier version.
  • Add raisins for natural sweetness.
  • Sprinkle sugar on top before baking for crunch.
  • Use yogurt instead of milk for richer texture.
