This is fantastic. I also added shredded apples (1/2 an apple, but I only made 1/2 the recipe) and it was great. Used egg whites and soymilk as substitutes, and it tasted great. Thanks!

Loved these muffins! The only thing I did different was to replace the oil with applesauce. They turned out moist and certainly didn't last long at my house!

For those of you who shred and freeze zucchini like myself, this recipe can successfully accommodate without much fuss. As others did, I subbed applesauce for half of the oil and 1/2c wheat flour for that much all-purpose. Additionally I measured out 1c thawed UNSQUEEZED UNDRAINED frozen shredded zucchini, omitting the milk in the recipe to compensate for the extra liquid. My main criteria for good muffins (aside from taste) are 1) light, moist texture and 2) substantial rise. These satisfied both, and with a little less cinnamon and sugar were still tasty, too. For whatever reason they did stick rather obstinately to my silicon pan. Hmmm...

Very good- my three year old neice could not get enough of them! I did cut the sugar by 50% with Splenda, but it was not noticeable.

Wow! 6 stars! These are so moist and delicious! I made quite a few changes as I'm trying to eat healthier and they still came out beautifully. I used 1 cup whole wheat flour and 1/2 cup regular, about 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, 1/4 cup vegetable oil and 1/4 cup unsweetened apple sauce, swapped the walnuts for pecans (what I had on-hand), left out the chocolate chips and added 1/2 a grated apple. Mmm-mmm good! I had a difficult time stopping at one! Next time I might try adding some raisins and perhaps some grated carrot. Also think I could make it even healthier with all whole wheat flour and full 1/2 cup of unsweetened apple sauce instead of the oil. This recipe is a great staple and will definitely go into my regular rotation! Thank you!

ATTN: Weight-Watchers people: these are AWESOME. If you follow the following specifications, each muffin is only 3 points: 60 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips, 28 grams walnuts, 1 small grated apple, 1/2 c. unsweetened applesauce in place of the oil, use half whole wheat flour and half white flour, 1/2 c. brown sugar and 1/4 c. white sugar (instead of all white sugar), 1/2% milk instead of whole, and 2 small grated zucchinis (no need to peel). It actually makes about 14 muffins because of the extra zucchini and apple. VERY FLAVORFUL and full of fiber. The mix will seem very wet, but they turn out moist. Check them at 20 minutes with a toothpick and then continue baking at 2 min. intervals until toothpick inserted into muffin comes out clean.

Wow! These were amazing! Great for breakfast warm, or dessert with coffee or tea- cold even. I doubled the chocolate chips and added a shredded apple. Made a full dozen.

This is an extremely easy recipe that turned out wonderfully. I pretty much followed the directions to a T. Differences: I was slightly short of a cup of zucchini once I shredded it (didn't seem to matter) and I had only full sized chips (I chopped them up with a knife). Threw a few chips on top. Half of the dozen are milk chocolate, half semi-sweet (I like the semi-sweet, she likes the milk chocolate). Next time I will make a double batch if I have the zucchini. Great use for zucchini you've left in the fridge too long.

Reduce sugar to 1/2 c, replace oil with applesauce and do 1/2 c zucchini & 1/2 c carrots. Delicous and less calories.

Delicious- substituted half the oil for some homemade spiced applesauce to cut the fat and used 1/2 cup of brown sugar instead of all white sugar. Made mini muffins that took 11 minutes to cook in my oven. Doubled the recipe and it made approx. 60 mini muffins! Sprinkled with powdered sugar to make them a bit prettier. Perfect for a big dessert party we are having!

These were great! I followed others' advice and did 1/4 cup applesauce and 1/4 cup vegetable oil in stead of 1/2 cup vegetable oil. I also made them in a mini-muffin pan. My very picky 3 year old who always states that she hates zucchini could not get enough of these! My 11 month old also really enjoyed them. I will definitely make these again, and probably double the recipe next time so that I have enough left over to freeze!

My picky teens love these for grab and go. I try to have these frozen on hand in a ziplock bag. A fairly healthy alternative to junk food. A few changes to make healthier: I used 1/2 brown sugar and 1/2 granulated. 1/2 applesauce and 1/2 canola oil. I increased the nuts for more MUFA. Next I will try 1/2 whole wheat flour.

These are wonderful! Even my grandson, who won't eat zucchini, loved these and asked for more. They're great to freeze ahead and have a quick, easy breakfast. I add some wheat germ to boost the nutritional value.
