Strawberry Zucchini Muffins
Ingredients
  • ~1 cup mashed banana (from 2 very ripe bananas)
  • 1 cup grated zucchini, packed and squeezed very dry (about 1 medium zucchini)
  • ½ cup milk
  • ¼ cup butter, melted and cooled slightly
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 ½ cup whole wheat flour
  • 2 tbs maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup chopped strawberries
Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and grease a standard muffin tin well with nonstick spray.
  2. Add the mashed banana, grated zucchini, milk, butter, eggs, and vanilla extract to a medium bowl. Stir gently with a spatula.
  3. Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and cinnamon. Stir gently to combine.
  4. Stir in the strawberries gently.
  5. Divide the batter among the prepared muffin tin. You’ll use about a heaping ¼ cup in each muffin cup.
  6. Bake for 22-28 minutes or until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out cleanly and the muffins are golden brown around the edges. Let cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, running a knife around the edges to loosen if needed.
  7. Serve at room temperature, warmed slightly, or chilled.
  8. These can be frozen for later
