Zucchini Muffin

Zucchini Muffin

EverydaySweetened

A zucchini muffin is a sweetened baked good that uses finely grated zucchini to add natural moisture and subtle vegetable nutrients while creating a tender, cake-like texture. Though the zucchini contributes dietary fiber and vitamins A/C, the added sugar and refined flour content in many recipes positions these muffins closer to desserts nutritionally, requiring mindful portioning for balanced consumption. Whole-grain variations or reduced-sugar versions can enhance their nutritional profile while retaining the vegetable's benefits.
