Double Chocolate Zucchini Muffins are ultra-moist, rich, and loaded with chocolate chips, with hidden zucchini for extra tenderness. Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dessert, they’re easy to make in one bowl and freezer-friendly.


Ingredients

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 tsp baking powder

½ tsp baking soda

½ tsp salt

2 large eggs

1 cup granulated sugar

½ cup milk

½ cup avocado oil (or neutral oil)

2 tsp vanilla extract

1 ½ cups grated zucchini, squeezed dry

1 ½ cups chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line muffin tin with paper liners.

  2. In a small bowl, whisk flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  3. In a large bowl, whisk eggs and sugar until combined.

  4. Add milk, oil, and vanilla; whisk until smooth.

  5. Fold in dry ingredients until just combined.

  6. Stir in zucchini and chocolate chips.

  7. Fill liners ¾ full and bake 18–22 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.

  8. Cool in tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire rack.

Notes
