  • 1/2 Teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 Cup Raisins
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 Cups Unpeeled Grated Zucchini
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla
  • 3/4 Cup Butter

Instructions

  • Gather all the ingredients you need. Preheat the oven to 400. Then you will need to grater the zucchini. After you grater, the zucchini, set the shredded pieces aside to use later.

  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir the mixture together, but don’t overmix the batter.
  • Add the zucchini to the batter and stir around.
  • Fill the muffin pan with muffin liners.
  • Take a spoon and fill the muffin liners with batter all the way to the top.
  • Place the muffins in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. To check if done insert a toothpick in the center and see if it comes clean.
  • Enjoy!!

Notes

  • Don’t overmix the batter. This can cause the muffins to become tough and rubbery.
  • You don’t need to peel the zucchini. Just wash well and grater.
  • You can use frozen zucchini’s if you prefer. Just thaw first and then squeeze out excess moisture.
  • Bring the eggs to room temperature before adding to the recipe.
  • To check if muffins are done insert a toothpick in the center of the muffin to see if it comes clean.
