Zucchini Cupcakes

 The zucchini is currently abundant and if you are looking for a delicious, quick and easy muffin recipe this is it!

 Zucchini Muffins:

1  1/2 cups flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 

1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

1  1/2 teaspoon vanilla

1/2 teaspoon lemon zest

1  cup brown sugar, packed

1  1/2 cups grated zucchini

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees and line a muffin tin with foil liners.

Stir together the flour, soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.

In a separate bowl, blend together the oil, egg, vanilla, and the zest.

Whisk in the brown sugar and stir until smooth.

Stir in the zucchini and then add the flour mixture and stir until combined.

Spoon the batter into prepared muffin cups.  Place in oven for about 10-12 minutes, rotate pan, and bake for another 10-12 minutes.

Cool in the muffin tin for about 10 minutes and then remove them to a cooling rack.

I packaged the muffins in bags, decorated with ENJOY stickers and tied with seam tape.

Then off to deliver to some special friends!!!
