Giant Zucchini Muffins

Recipes »  Bread  »  Muffins

These are probably some of the best zucchini muffins I have ever made. The brown sugar topping really kicks them up.

"I just tried three different zucchini bread/muffin recipes today with the abundance of zucchini from my garden and this recipe is by far our favorite! I didn't have any buttermilk so tried milk with lemon juice added to it (1 TBSP lemon juice/1cup of milk) and doubled the recipe and they turned out great. They're a little "lighter" or less dense than the others and I'm afraid they won't hold up as well after frozen, but I'm going to try to freeze them." - Ckonyn

These are awesome! I did have to add a little extra buttermilk and I only had a small muffin pan but it made 17 muffins and they were done around 15 min. But they are very delicious!
