Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups (260 grams) flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 cup (205 grams) brown sugar
1/2 cup (100 grams) sugar
3/4 cup (138 grams or 6oz) vegetable oil
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1.5 cups (190 grams or 7oz) shredded zucchini
1.5 cups ( 165 grams or 7oz) shredded sweet potato (peeled)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Brush the top of a muffin tin with a little vegetable oil and then add muffin cup liners (the oil keeps the baked muffin tops from sticking!).
  • Mix 2 cups (260 grams) flour, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk 1 cup (205 grams) brown sugar and 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar together to combine. Mix to ensure there are no clumps.
  • Add 3/4 cup (138 grams) vegetable oil, 3 eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla and whisk until everything is mixed and fully incorporated.
  • Add 1.5 cups (190 grams) shredded zucchini and 1.5 cups (165 grams) sweet potato and stir to combine.
  • Add dry ingredients and fold in until just mixed in. If using any mix-ins, add those in now as well!
  • Divide batter among lined muffin tins, filling up to the top. I generally get exactly 12 muffins out of this, but you might get a few more (depending on size of zucchini and sweet potato - see note below)
  • Bake for 18-22 minutes, until a toothpick or knife inserted comes out clean.
  • Let cool before enjoying.
  • Leftover muffins will stay out for 1-2 days (covered). After that I suggest keeping them in the fridge.
