Gluten Free Zucchini bread like muffins

 ref: https://minimalistbaker.com/gluten-free-zucchini-cake/

12 muffins in greased muffin tin, 300F for 45'

I cut the sugar in half and next time plan to substitute ground walnuts for almond flour. It rose well. I thought it was rather plain and too moist but my sister loved it.

Grate zucchini in food processor after peeling and removing seeds. Works best if you cut in smaller chunks and do it in bathes. Neighbor had given me two large zucchini so I ground it all up and froze 1/2 cup portions in the freezer.

Blend together dry ingredients, then set aside.

  • 1.5 cups GF flour blend (I used Bob's Red Mill 1:1 baking flour for cakes)
  • 1/4 cup oatmeal ground fine in ninja blender
  • 3/4 almond meal but next time will add a portion of ground walnuts for improved flavor 
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
Wisk together wet ingredients in large bowl (I wisk after each addition)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup oil
  • 1/4 cup (4oz) applesauce
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1.5 cup grated zucchini
Add dry ingredients to wet and blend gently till all combined. Then put in greased muffin tins and bake.
