Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (240g) oat flour
  • 1 tsp (5g) baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) baking soda
  • 1 tbsp (8g) ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp (1.5g) salt
  • 2 cups (230g) grated zucchini, squeezed dry
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) melted coconut oil
  • 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your muffin tin with parchment liners.
  2. Grate the zucchini using the medium holes of a box grater.
  3. Place the grated zucchini in a kitchen towel and squeeze firmly over the sink to remove as much excess water as possible.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until no clumps remain.
  5. In a large bowl, beat the eggs, maple syrup, melted oil, and vanilla until the mixture is smooth and pale.
  6. Fold the squeezed zucchini into the wet ingredients using a spatula.
  7. Gently pour the dry ingredients into the wet. Fold together until just combined; stop the moment you see no more streaks of flour.
  8. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  9. Bake for 20–22 minutes until the tops are mahogany-colored and a toothpick comes out clean.
  10. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
