Why This Recipe Is So Delicious

These muffins are a great way to enjoy a healthy treat without gluten. The zucchini adds moisture and a subtle sweetness, making each bite soft and flavorful. They are perfect for a quick snack or a light breakfast.

Helpful Cooking Tips

- Make sure to squeeze out excess moisture from the zucchini to avoid soggy muffins.
- Use a toothpick to test doneness; it should come out clean or with a few crumbs.
- Avoid overmixing the batter to keep the muffins tender and fluffy.

Directions

Warm your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spraying a 12-cup silicone muffin pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk together the protein powder, tapioca flour, sorghum flour, arrowroot flour, oat flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and xanthan gum until everything is well mixed. In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the shredded zucchini, applesauce, stevia powder, and oil, stirring until everything is combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and gently mix until just combined—don’t overdo it. Fold in the walnuts, then let the batter rest for about 5 minutes. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling each one all the way to the top. Bake for around 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Once done, let the muffins cool on a wire rack before popping them out of the cups.

Best Ways To Serve

Serve these muffins warm with a smear of butter or your favorite nut butter. They also pair well with a cup of tea or coffee for a cozy afternoon break.

How To Freeze This Dish

Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. For longer freshness, keep them in the fridge for up to a week or freeze them wrapped individually for up to three months. Thaw before eating.
