Description

Delicious Zucchini Banana Muffins topped with a sweet maple glaze, perfect for breakfast or snacks.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup grated zucchini (about 1 medium zucchini)
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup maple syrup (for glaze)
  • 2 tablespoons milk (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, mix the mashed bananas, grated zucchini, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  4. Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly. Pour the batter into each cup, filling them about three-quarters full.
  5. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. While the muffins are baking, whisk together the maple syrup and milk in a small bowl until smooth.
  7. Once the muffins are done, let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and drizzle the maple glaze over the tops.

Notes

  • Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
