I was also gifted with 8 gigantic zucchini...

so I decided some chocolatey, cinnamony muffins were in order.

Ingredients:

1.5 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup white sugar

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1.5 cups grated zucchini

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 eggs

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/3 cup canola oil

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 to 1 cup mini chocolate chips

cinnamon and sugar for topping

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  In a large bowl whisk flour, sugars, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

In a medium bowl combine zucchini, eggs, vanilla, chocolate chips and oil.  Stir well.  Then gently stir in flour mixture.

Fill lined muffin tins about 3/4 fill and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.

Bake for 30 minutes or until golden.

Enjoy!
