Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
- 3 Tablespoons salted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (einkorn, other wheat variety, or 1:1 gluten free flour)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (if using unsalted butter, increase salt to a total of 1/2 teaspoon)
- 1 1/2 cup grated and squeezed zucchini (squeeze as much liquid out of the grated zucchini as possible)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit and line a standard 12 cup muffin tin with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl whisk together the maple syrup, melted butter, eggs and vanilla.
- Add the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, ginger and salt. Whisk the wet and dry ingredients together until a smooth batter forms.
- Add the grated and squeezed zucchini to the muffin batter and stir through with a rubber spatula.
- Fill muffin tins 3/4 full.
- Bake for 20 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove muffins from the oven and allow them to sit in the muffin pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack or enjoy warm.
- Once the muffins have cooled completely, store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, then transfer to the fridge for up to 1 week. Eat and enjoy!
Notes
- Freezing Instructions: For longer storage, wrap muffins individually in plastic wrap, store in a freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months. When ready to enjoy, thaw overnight on the counter and warm if desired.
