Tips:

  • For the best results, use a food processor to shred the zucchini finely. This will help it blend into the batter more easily and prevent it from becoming too watery.
  • Be sure to measure your flour correctly. Too much flour can make the muffins dry and dense.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, which will make the muffins tough.
  • Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full. Overfilling can cause the muffins to rise too much and spill over the sides of the cups.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can dry out the muffins.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help prevent them from breaking.
