Family favorite. They don't last long. Taste great from the oven. I like to freeze leftovers the same day. Great for breakfast or lunch pails. Freeze ripe bananas until you're ready to do some baking.

Tips:

  • If you don't have flaxseed meal, you can grind whole flaxseeds in a coffee grinder or food processor. You can also use chia seeds or hemp seeds as a substitute.
  • Grated zucchini adds moisture and nutrients to the muffins. Be sure to squeeze out the excess water from the zucchini before adding it to the batter.
  • If you want a sweeter muffin, you can add 1/2 cup of sugar to the batter. You can also add a teaspoon of vanilla extract for extra flavor.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the muffins tough.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
