24 muffins
- Serves:
- 24
ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 6 ounces fat free Greek yogurt
- 1 cup sugar
- 1⁄3 cup brown sugar
- 2 zucchini, grated
- 3 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1⁄4 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 cup walnuts
directions
- 1.) Preheat oven to 350. Spray/line muffin pan.
- 2.) Beat eggs until light any foamy, about 3 minutes.
- 3.) Add sugars, oil/yogurt, and zukes. I didn’t dry off the veggies, and everything turned out fine. Combine with a spatula.
- 4.) Add dry ingredients, continue to combine with your spatula until completely incorporated.
- 5.) Bake for 20 minutes. I used a cookie scoop to portion the muffins, two scoops should fill the individual spaces. Also, instead of making more muffins, I put the remainder of the dough into an 8” square pan—to take to work tomorrow. Do not over bake.

Very light and moist. And did I forget to say tasty? Well they are. Made using Splenda for the sugar, 1 super sized zucchini (about 3 cups) and eggbeaters for the eggs. The cinnamon is the perfect amount. Made half into muffins and the other half in a 9x9 pan as mentioned in the directions, both turned out great. Will make again as was super yummy and 9x9 pan method was such a nice alternative to traditional muffins and bread. Thanks so much for the post.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I have always liked cooking, but growing up my mom never really cooked. Everything I have learned has either been DIY or via recipes or... just trying something!
For fun I like to bike with my dog, Ambrose, go running (I like to stay active), go shopping, take pictures, and spend as much time outside as possible. I live in Pittsburgh so the weather is fairly unpredictable here so I have to savor the nice weather while it lasts!
I am really into community development and the urban environment. I will be finishing grad school in August 2007 and I have helped in starting a Non-Profit organization in my community.
