It’s always fun to combine ingredients that are a world apart, like zucchini and applesauce. Believe it or not, zucchini muffins are real and they taste incredibly delicious, so grab the ingredients and start baking! Kids love them!

You’ll need:

  • zucchini (2 small ones will be perfect)
  • 2 cups of biscuit mix (I like wholegrain)
  • 2 eggs
  • 3/4 c brown sugar
  • 1/4 c applesauce
  • cinnamon (1 tsp)
  • lemon juice (2 tsp)

How to make it:

Preheat oven. Wash the zucchini and use a grater to shred them (you can peel them first if you like).

Do not use the small holes on the grater- otherwise you will end up with a puree.

Grate the zucchini using the largest holes on the graters and then wrap them in a paper towel so that it absorbs the water.

Use a cup to measure your grated zucchini. The recipe requires you to use about 1 1/2 cups.

Now you will need to whisk together the eggs, the sugar, the applesauce and lemon juice.

Mix the biscuit mix with the cinnamon. If you can add 1 teaspoon allspice, that would contribute greatly to the taste, so try it.

Now add the grated zucchini and the whisked ingredients into the biscuit mix. Try not to overmix the ingredients.

Once you have your batter, fill the muffin cups (lines with paper liners) till about 2/3rds.
