Healthy Zucchini Muffins



  • 1 2/3 cups white whole wheat flour (or all-purpose flour)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup milk (almond milk, 2% milk, or whatever you prefer)
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups grated fresh zucchini
  • 1/3 cups old-fashioned oats (uncooked)
  • 1 cup chocolate chips


Prepare a 12-cup muffin pan by either greasing it with cooking spray or lining the cups with paper liners. 

Combine dry ingredients, set aside.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together egg, maple syrup, milk, coconut oil and vanilla extract until combined.  Pour this mixture into the dry ingredient mixture, and stir with a spoon until just combined.  (Do not overmix.)  Stir in the zucchini, chocolate chips, and oats until just combined.
Bake for 18-20 minutes at 350
