Servings 12
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extra
- 1 cup shredded zucchini
- 3/4 cup semi-sweet regular sized chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray 12 muffin cups in a muffin pan or use muffin liners.
- In a large bowl mix flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon and salt together. In another bowl mix together egg, applesauce, vegetable oil, milk, lemon juice and vanilla. Add wet ingredients into the dry ingredients bowl and continue mixing until well combined.
- Add in zucchini and chocolate chips, gently folding the ingredients into the batter.
- Pour muffin cups so they are 2/3 full with batter. Tip: I like to add additional chocolate chips on top of each muffin.
- Bake in the oven for 23-25 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Serve warm and enjoy!
