These muffins have a surprising ingredient sneaking in some added nutrition and keeping them moist- zucchini! Zucchini is such a versatile veggie, that you honestly don’t even notice in these muffins. This recipe is great to add to your meal prep for the week, as these muffins make for a great grab-and-go breakfast, or snack! They also freeze really well, so make a big batch and then save them in the freezer.
