Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ (168g) cup all purpose flour spooned & leveled
  • ⅓ (27g) cup cocoa powder spooned & leveled
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ cup melted coconut oil
  • ½ cup honey
  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • ½ cup greek yogurt room temperature
  • 1 ½ (228g) cup grated zucchini grated on smaller side of box grater
  • ¾ cup chocolate chunks or chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425° and line muffin tin with liners. Set aside.
  • Whisk Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, add 1 ¼ (168g) cup all purpose flour, ⅓ (27g) cup cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ¼ teaspoon kosher salt & whisk together until combined.
  • Whisk together wet ingredients: In another mixing bowl, whisk ½ cup melted coconut oil, ½ cup honey, 1 large egg and ½ cup greek yogurt together until combined. Add in 1 ½ (228g) cup grated zucchini & fold in with a spatula. No need to drain it!
  • Add dry ingredients to wet: add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix in until no dry bits remain. Finally ¾ cup chocolate chunks or chips and fold in with spatula.
  • Bake: Fill muffin cups until full. I like to use a large 3tbs cookie scoop. Top with extra chocolate chunks or chips. Bake muffins for 5 minutes at 425°. Lower the heat to 350° and bake for 15 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
    Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in a refrigerator for 5 days. Warm slightly or eat cold!
