Chocolate Chip Zucchini Muffins {Gluten Free}

25 Jan Chocolate Chip Zucchini Muffins {Gluten Free}

These chocolate chip zucchini muffins gluten free are so delicious!! We had some zucchini that we needed to use up and zucchini is so awesome to “hide” in baked goods. It’s so funny because when I cook zucchini in meals, I always hear complaints.

“Ugh, green stuff.”

“It’s so squishy!”

But whenever I add zucchini in these muffins, I don’t hear a peep. They just eat them right up and they think it’s so good. Funny how that works, right? Picky eaters BE GONE! Who doesn’t love to enjoy some food that has hidden veggies in it? Best of both worlds!

These super easy to make + are gluten-free {always with me!} + dairy free!

The equipment I used to make this recipe…

• Food Processor
• Muffin Pan
• Hand Mixer

If you love these muffins, pair them with some protein-rich breakfast muffins that have some of our favorites – like egg + bacon!

Chocolate Chip Zucchini Muffins {Gluten Free}

Prep Time15 minutes mins

Cook Time35 minutes mins

Total Time50 minutes mins

Servings: 12 Muffins

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 Cups Almond Flour
• 1/2 Cup Coconut Flour
• 1 1/2 Cup Zucchini Shredded
• 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
• 3 Eggs Pasture-Raised
• 1 Tsp Cinnamon
• 2 Tbsp Flaxseed Meal
• 1 Tsp Baking Powder
• 1/2 Cup Maple Syrup
• Chocolate Chips

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Cut the ends off the zucchini. Cut up into chunks to fit inside a food processor. Run the food processor until all the zucchini is shredded up.
• Add all of the ingredients into a bowl. Mix well with a hand mixer.
• I never measure chocolate chips, I just put as much (or as little) as we want. Put chocolate chips in the bowl and mix well with a spoon.
• Line a muffin pan with parchment paper muffin cups (you can even take it a step further and spray it with coconut oil spray too to prevent sticking - highly recommend this!). Fill the muffin tray with the batter.
• Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the toothpick test comes out clean.
• Enjoy!
