These Zucchini Chocolate Chip Muffins are great for using extra zucchini from your garden. They’re super moist and delicious, and packed with chocolate chips. You kids won’t even taste the zucchini! I love this zucchini muffins recipe because it’s a quick and easy zucchini bread recipe. These zucchini muffins are perfect to add to an easy dinner recipe stash.

Zucchini Chocolate Chip Muffins

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 425℉ and line a muffin pan with paper liners.
2
In a medium size bowl gently whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.
3
In a large mixing bowl whisk together the melted coconut oil, brown sugar and white sugar. Add in the eggs, vanilla and milk and continue mixing until well blended.
4
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing well after each addition. The batter will be fairly thick.
5
Add the zucchini to your mixing bowl and gently fold it in until well incorporated.
6
Finally add the chocolate chips and fold them into the batter until evenly distributed.
7
Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin filling each ¾ of the way full.
8
Place them in the oven and bake for 5 minutes.
9
Reduce the oven temperature to 350℉ and bake for another 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Squeeze Your Zucchini Dry 💧
    Grate zucchini and squeeze it thoroughly in a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture, preventing soggy muffins and ensuring optimal texture.
  • Toast Your Chocolate Chips 🍫
    Lightly coat chocolate chips with a touch of flour before folding into batter to prevent them from sinking to the bottom during baking.
  • Brown Your Coconut Oil First 🥥
    Melt and slightly brown the coconut oil before mixing to add deeper, nutty notes that complement the warm spices and chocolate beautifully.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter ✋
    Fold ingredients together gently until just combined; overmixing develops gluten and creates tough, dense muffins instead of tender ones.
  • Fill Cups Strategically 🎯
    Fill muffin cups two-thirds full and place chocolate chips on top before baking so they stay visible and don't disappear into the crumb.
