Zucchini Muffins

September 11, 2009 by Leslie (LadyMin)

Zucchini Muffins

There are probably a zillion different zucchini bread recipes. I use the same recipe for muffins and bread. It’s easy to make and it stays nice and moist, even if you bake it a few minutes too long. So, here’s mine…

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts
  • 2 cups grated zucchini

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350°F.

In a medium bowl combine flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg. In a large bowl beat eggs, oil, vanilla and sugar. Add the flour mixture to the ingredients in the large bowl and mix well. Add the zucchini and walnuts and stir until combined.

Pour into muffin pans or two 8×4 loaf pans. Grease or spray pans with non-stick cooking spray. Bake 40 to 60 minutes for loaf or 25 to 30 minutes for muffins. Cool in the pan for about 15 minutes then remove.

    They taste good too. I gave them to a few people who don’t like zucchini and they thought they were good. So who knows, even you might like them!

    Weeeeellllll… I’m sure I would actually! However… the two whole cups of sugar would probably kill me, being diabetic and all. ;) *sigh* I miss *ALL* the good stuff! :(
