Zuccinni Muffins by
Ingredients
Unsalted butter, for coating the pan (if needed)
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
4 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
14 ounces zucchini (about 3 to 4 medium zucchini), ends trimmed, grated on the large holes of a box grater (about 3 cups)
Instructions
Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and arrange two racks to divide the oven into thirds. Line two (12-well) muffin pans with paper liners. Alternatively, coat the wells with butter; set aside. Place the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, nutmeg, and salt in a medium bowl and whisk to aerate and break up any lumps; set aside.
Place the eggs, sugars, oil, and vanilla in a large bowl and whisk until the eggs are broken up and the mixture is thoroughly combined. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the flour mixture until just combined. Fold in the zucchini until evenly mixed.
Fill the muffin wells about two-thirds of the way. Bake, rotating the muffin pans from front to back and top to bottom halfway through the cooking time, until the muffins are browned and a cake tester or toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Transfer the pans to wire racks and let cool for 5 minutes. Remove the muffins from the pans and cool completely.
