Ingredients

1 1/2 cups shredded zucchini

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1 egg

1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

1 cup whole wheat flour

1/2 cup quick cooking oats (not the packets of instant - plain quick oats)

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp baking powder

1 tsp ground cinnamon

zest of one lemon

Directions

Note: Shred your zucchini in your food processor. Much quicker, easier, and less messy than doing it by hand.

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray muffin pan with cooking spray, or line with muffin cups.
2. Stir together wet ingredients in one bowl and dry ingredients in another. Slowly combine the two. Pour into prepared muffin pan.
3. Bake at 400 for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool about 10 minutes before removing from pan.

These are a great basic recipe - you could add diced apples, raisins, chocolate chips... use your imagination!
