Ingredients
1C white flour (4.5 oz)1c whole wheat flour (4.5 oz)1/2 c packed brown sugar 6 T granulated sugar1 1/4 t ground cinnamon1 t baking soda1/2 t baking powderdash of salt if desired (I usually don't)1 C old fashioned quick rolled oats3 large eggs( I use med and that's what the nutrition is calculated as)2 T olive oilheaping 3/4 c unsweetened applesauce drained to make 1/2 cup2 t pure vanilla extract1 c grated drained zuccini (about 1 med)1 c grated drained yellow summer squash (same size as zucc)3/4 c chopped walnuts
Directions
--Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray muffin tins if not using liners but don't forget to calculate that in your numbers (I did not). Drain your heaping 3/4 c of applesauce for about 15 min.. (then discard the liquid) while you measure out your first seven dry ingredients from flour to baking power and mix well in a large bowl. Then add in your oatmeal. and mix again.

--In a smaller bowl WHISK your eggs, oil, drained applesauce and vanilla. ADD to the dry ingredients and MIX LIGHTLY.

--STIR in the zuccini, squash and nuts, but DON'T OVERMIX. Scoop into muffin tins (I use a squeeze handle #50 ice cream scoop about the size of a tablespoon. 1 level scoop for minis and 2 for regular size muffins) and bake 30 - 60 mins checking for doneness when knife inserted comes out clean.

--Enjoy warm or refridgerate and eat chilled.
