Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup grated zucchini
  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2 bananas)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the grated zucchini, mashed bananas, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips gently.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Make sure to squeeze out excess moisture from the zucchini before measuring to prevent soggy muffins.
  • These muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
