Apple Zucchini Muffins

Zucchini in the batter steams inside the muffin while it bakes keeping the crumb tender while not affecting the taste. And diced apple just adds a little sweetness to these not-too-sweet muffins.

Ingredients:

2 cups flour

1 cup milk

1 cup grated zucchini, unpeeled and wrung out in a dishtowel

1 cup peeled, diced apple

1/2 cup sugar

1/4 cup butter, melted

1 tsp vanilla

2 eggs

4 tsps baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

Preheat oven to 400°F. Melt the butter and set aside. Whisk the eggs, vanilla, sugar and milk together. Then add melted butter to the mix. In another bowl combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet stirring just until combined then fold in the zucchini and apple. Spoon batter into prepared medium muffin tin about 3/4 full and bake at 400°F for 17-20 or until a cake tester comes out clean. Makes 12 medium muffins.
