Delicious Chocolate Zucchini Muffins Recipe

Ingredients

• 3 eggs eggs
• 2 cups white sugar
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 0.33 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups grated zucchini
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
• 0.25 teaspoon ground cardamom

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare two 12-cup muffin tins by greasing them or using paper liners.
2. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until they are smooth. Add the sugar, oil, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract; whisk until everything is thoroughly combined.
3. Gently fold in the grated zucchini. Add the flour, baking soda, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and cardamom. Mix until just moistened – be careful not to overmix!
4. Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 of the way.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20 to 25 minutes, or until the tops spring back when lightly touched. Transfer the muffins to a wire rack and let them cool completely before storing loosely covered.
