Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups grated zucchini

Instructions
 

  • Get ready: Heat oven to 375°F and put liners in your 12-cup muffin pan or grease it well.
  • Mix dry stuff: Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together.
  • Beat wet stuff: Mix eggs, oil, both sugars, and vanilla in another big bowl.
  • Add zucchini: Gently stir grated zucchini into your wet mixture until it looks even all over.
  • Make batter: Fold wet stuff into dry stuff with a spoon until just mixed together - don't overdo it!
  • Fill and bake: Put batter in muffin cups 2/3 full and bake 18-22 minutes until golden brown. YUM!
  • Cool down: Let muffins sit in pan 5 minutes, then move to cooling rack before eating. ENJOY!!!

Notes

  • Keep all the moisture in your grated zucchini for the softest, most tender muffins ever.
  • Mix gently, or your muffins will be tough instead of light and fluffy like they should be.
  • These freeze great for up to 3 months if you wrap each one in plastic wrap first.
  • Room temperature eggs mix easier and make a smoother batter that looks more even and pretty.
  • Use an ice cream scoop to fill cups evenly so all your muffins look the same size.
