Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 cup zucchini, finely shredded
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
- 0.5 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups lightly with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, shredded zucchini, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well blended.
Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
If desired, gently fold in the chopped walnuts and/or chocolate chips for added texture and flavor.
Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
