The batter should be slightly lumpy.

Fill muffin tins 3/4 full. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until muffins are golden brown.

These zucchini muffins freeze well too, just wrap them each individually in a paper towel and then in plastic wrap. If you’d prefer you can wrap them individually in paper towels then place in a gallon bag, then freeze.

To reheat frozen muffins,  microwave on high for 30 seconds per muffin. We reheat them right in the paper towel, but remove the plastic wrap first!

Makes 24 Regular size muffins, or 12 Extra Large
