Whole Wheat Zucchini Muffins From Big Rigs ‘n Lil’ Cookies

Whole Wheat Zucchini Muffins at oldfatguy.ca

One of the best thing about food blogging is you meet talented cooks with their own blogs. That is how I found out about Big Rigs ‘n Lil’ Cookies. She has a fun site with great foods and interesting posts.

I had a good crop of zucchini this year so when she posted a recipe for Whole Wheat Zucchini Muffins I marked it for future use. Then She Who Must Be Obeyed told me to use some of the zucchini and I had the recipe ready!

Here is the link to her recipe:

Whole Wheat Zucchini Muffins

The only change I made was I replaced the chocolate chips with raisins. I did this because raisins are much healthier. The fact I had no chocolate chips had nothing to do with the decision.

I grated the zucchini. You can see the aftermath. She Who Must Be Obeyed suggests I leave a mess. I clean it up but apparently I don’t do it right.

I mixed the dry ingredients up in one bowl. I Mixed the eggs, sugar, vanilla and vegetable oil in another bowl. I stirred the zucchini into that mixture.

I added the dry ingredients to the liquid and stirred just until mixed. I stirred in the raisins.

I let them cool in the pans and removed.

The Verdict

What a nice muffin. The whole wheat gives a nice rich texture while the zucchini keeps it moist. These will be made for every zucchini crop!

Thanks Big Rigs ‘n Lil’ Cookies!

  1. Thank you so much for sharing this 🙂 She Who Must Be Obeyed made such a great decision in wanting some zucchini used. I never thought of using raisins in them, but if we ever run out of chocolate chips (which Truckin’ Man will have words about if that happens!) I will have to try that twist!
