We have excitedly harvested quite a few zucchinis this Summer already and have enjoyed spiralized zucchini pasta, sautéed zucchini and a couple yummy soups, but I was inspired by a friend who was baking with her zucchinis today and thought I might make up my own muffin recipe. (She actually sent me a delicious looking recipe to try, but then I felt like being creative.) I’m quite pleased with how they taste and Jeremiah is currently asking me for seconds, so I think they’re a hit!
