Serves: 12 muffins
Ingredients
  • 2 large eggs
  • ⅓ cup molasses or honey
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups King Arthur White Whole Wheat Flour or Premium Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 cups shredded, unpeeled zucchini (about 1 small/medium zucchini)
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • ¾ cup chopped walnuts (optional)
  • raw sugar (optional)
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F; line muffin pan with the liner. If you want to make the loaf, lightly grease a 9" x 5" loaf pan.
  2. Remove zucchini seeds, cut it in large chucks and use a food processor with shredding disc or a cheese grater to grate it. Wrap it in a kitchen towel and squeeze out the water as much as you can.
  3. In a large mixing bowl or an electric mixer, beat the eggs, molasses (or honey), oil, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
  4. Add the flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and cinnamon. Mix until well combined.
  5. Stir in the zucchini, chocolate chips, and nuts.
  6. Use a large ice cream scoop to put the batter into the prepared muffin pan or pour the batter into 9" x 5" loaf pan.
  7. Sprinkle the top with some raw sugar.
  8. Bake the muffins for 12-15 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. For the loaf, it will take about 55 to 60 minutes.
  9. Remove the muffins from the oven, and serve with tea or coffee.
  10. If you make the loaf, cool completely before slicing.
