Chocolate Zucchini Muffins

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]You may wonder, “Why add zucchini to muffins?” The answer is texture, moisture and nutrition. And since zucchinis have a mild flavor, the sweet ingredients take center stage. The starring role of this show is chocolate with a supporting role of more chocolate. These chocolate zucchini muffins are sweet and moist. Each perfectly portioned muffin could easily serve as a satisfying breakfast or a delectable dessert.

A Muffin Pan Has Chocolate Zucchini Muffins Popping Out and Ready to Eat.

Chocolate Zucchini Muffins

Wet ingredients

  • 2 medium-sized zucchinis or 2 cups grated & strained
  • 3/4 cup avocado oil or coconut oil
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs (well beaten)
  • 1 cup thick yogurt

Dry ingredients

  • 1.5 cups 190 g. whole wheat flour or all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (divided)
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place cupcake liners in muffin tray and spray inside of liners with cooking spray.
  2. In small mixing bowl, combine oil, yogurt, vanilla extract and eggs.
  3. In separate bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
  4. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and gently mix. Do not overmix. (Note: The batter will not be runny. It will be moist and thick.)
  5. Add grated zucchini and mix.
  6. Add about 1/4 cup chocolate chips and stir in.
  7. Pour batter in each of the molds till it is 3/4th full. Sprinkle remaining chocolate chips on top.
  8. Bake 25 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Remove muffins from oven and let them cool about 10 minutes before serving.
  • Squeeze out the excess water from zucchini if it has a lot of liquid in it. If you use a large-hole grater, the zucchini won’t be as wet and you can skip this step.
  • If using coconut oil, use it in liquid form. If you heat the oil to melt it, allow it to cool briefly before mixing with eggs. Use eggs at room temperature so the coconut oil doesn’t solidify.
  • Grab these ingredients and more at Vitacost.
