Comfort Food Baking: Zucchini Muffins Edition

I’m back with more comfort food baking. Muffins are a go to snack of mine, but I love fitting my veggies into them too.
So if you love zucchini as much as I do you’ve got to try these out.

Ingredients

2 large Zucchini , grated (3 1/2 cups)
2 cups All-purpose flour
2 tsp Baking powder
1 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
3/4 tsp Cinnamon
3/4 tsp Salt
2 Eggs
1/2 cup Olive or Vegetable Oil
1/2 cup Sour Cream
1 cup Granulated sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350F.

  2. Spray the muffin tin with oil or line with paper liners (parchment ones are my personal fave)

  3. Put the zucchini in a colander in the sink. To remove the liquid squeeze with both hands until as much liquid as possible has been removed.

  4. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a bowl.

  5. Whisk eggs, oil and yogurt in a large bowl.

  6. Whisk in sugar, then stir in zucchini.

  7. Add flour mixture in 2 parts until just combined.

  8. Bake until a toothpick inserted in centre comes out clean, 25 to 30 min.

  9. Let cool in pan for 10 min.

  10. Transfer muffins to a rack and let cool completely.

These also freeze great too… I mean if they make it that far.

How do you incorporate your fave vegetables into your baking?
