Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder dutch processed
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 large zucchini shredded and drained on paper towels
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line or grease a muffin tin (see note).
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil, applesauce, sugars, eggs and vanilla. Pour wet ingredients over dry and fold together.
  • Fold in zucchini and chocolate chips, mixing until just combined.
  • Using an ice cream scoop or a large spoon, portion batter into muffin tin. Bae at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
  • Cool in tin on cooling rack for a few minutes before turning out to cool completely.

Notes

** I’ve found when I line my muffin tins with liners, I can get 10 muffins, but only eight when greased.
