Zucchini Muffins Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, whole wheat flour, unsweetened applesauce, almond milk, flax eggs, and maple syrup. Mix until well combined.
- Add the baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, salt, and ground black pepper to the bowl. Stir until the dry ingredients are fully incorporated into the batter.
- If desired, fold in any optional add-ins like chopped nuts, raisins, or vegan chocolate chips.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
