ZUCCHINI CHOCOLATE CHIP MUFFIN INGREDIENTS
1.5 c. all purpose flour
1.5 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp. sea salt

3/4 c. sugar

HOW TO MAKE ZUCCHINI CHOCOLATE CHIP MUFFINS
Prepare muffin tin with grease or wrappers or use my favorite non-stick muffin pan (affiliate)
In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Make a well in the center.
In small bowl, mix the egg or applesauce, zucchini, sugar, and oil.
Pour the wet mixture into the well of the dry mixture and mix just until incorporated together.
Gently toss in the chocolate chips.
Spoon the mixture into your muffin wells.
Sprinkle the batter with chunky raw sugar. (optional)
Bake 20-25 minutes or until a wooden toothpick comes out clean. Don’t over bake.
Cool on a wire rack.
Store in an airtight container.
The flavors will meld better on the second day, but who can really wait that long?
Enjoy these dairy-free and egg-free zucchini muffins warm with dairy-free butter.

Hi there! Last time I made these, they seemed a little dense. Something I did? Or recommendation to make them a little lighter? (:

Without egg, baked goods do tend to be dense. Same as our cake recipe. It's not anything you did wrong. ;)

These look great. So glad you commented that you left out the egg and the applesauce! I don't usually have applesauce on hand, although I have been using ground flax seeds and water as a substitute for eggs.
