Ingredients:

4 eggs or 1 cup refrigerated or frozen egg product, thawed
4 cups shredded zucchini
1/4 cup canola oil

3 cups whole wheat flour
1 3/4 cups Splenda
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/3 cups chopped nuts

Method:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat 2 1/2-inch muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray and set aside. In a large bowl combine eggs, zucchini, oil, applesauce, and vanilla; mix well. Add flour, Splenda, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt; stir to combine. Stir in nuts. Fill muffin pans 2/3 full. Bake 20 minutes.
Makes approx 30 muffins.

Helpful Hints:

These whole wheat muffins are full of zucchini-a great way to sneak in vegetables into everyone's diet. Serve them for breakfast, brunch or as bread with dinner.
Notes:
These muffins are very moist. The batter is not as stiff as regular muffin batter. The batter will be runnier, but not too much. You might need to add a little more flour depending on how wet your zucchini is.
Number of Servings: Makes approx 30 muffins
