Kids won’t notice the vegetables in these yummy zucchini muffins. They can have fun helping you make them, too!
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 tsp. baking soda
- 2 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp. nutmeg
- 1/8 tsp. ginger
- 1/8 tsp. allspice
- 1/2 tsp. salt
Stir in:
- 2 cups grated zucchini
- 1 apple peeled, cored and grated
In another bowl, beat:
- 3 eggs
- 2 tsp. vanilla
- 1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce
- 1/2 cup oil (vegetable or canola)
Method:
Stir into flour mixture until batter is just combined. Spoon into well greased muffin cups, filling to the top. (Note: If you are using muffin liners you may need to spray with cooking spray to prevent the muffins from sticking to the paper.) Bake at 350° for 20 minutes.

Is there enough leavening in boxed cake or muffin mixes to cause the dough to rise into a bread-shaped loaf (made in a 9″x5″ loaf pan), or would this not work at all? How much of a leavening agent (baking powder, soda, etc) would I need to add so that it COULD work?
Do I need to adjust the temperatures and/or cooking times?

I have grown an enormous zucchini, and I don’t know what to do with it. It is as big as my cat – and that’s no scrawny cat. It’s almost too big to eat. Any recipe suggestions that require a LOT of this vegetable?
