Ingredients

    1.5 cup Flour, white
    1.5 cup Oats, Quaker (1 cup dry oats)
    1.5 cup Granulated Sugar
    .5 cup Cocoa, dry powder, unsweetened
    2 tsp Baking Soda
    1 tsp Salt
    4 large Egg, fresh, whole, raw
    1 cup (8 fl oz) Yogurt, plain, low fat
    1 tbsp Cinnamon, ground
    2 tbsp Hershey's Special Dark Chocolate Chips

Tips

Because of the high fiber content these would make an excellent breakfast too. Next time I think I'll grind the oats down to a powder first as well to give the muffins a smoother texture.


Directions

If you're using old woody zucchini, be sure to peel it first. Otherwise shred 2 cups worth.

In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients.

Going back to the zucchini bowl, scramble the 4 eggs and add them in. Add the yogurt. Add bowl of dry ingredients in installments, stirring each time.

Grease a muffin with oil or butter, or use paper muffin cups. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. If they're not fully done, give them another 5 minutes. Yum!
