Lemon-Coconut Zucchini Muffins TNT

[PA Baker]

DH doesn't like anything w/ zucchini but even he liked these! If you're not into whole wheat flour and flax, you could easily omit the flax and use all AP flour. But these turned out very nice and light even w/ the wheat flour.


3/4 c AP flour
3/4 c wheat flour
¾ c sugar
2 heaping TBSP ground flax seeds
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp salt
1/3 c sweetened coconut flakes
1 egg, lightly beaten
½ c plain yogurt (full or reduced fat)
¼ c milk
1-2 TBSP lemon zest (amount to taste)
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla
1 c shredded zucchini

Extra coconut

In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, flax, baking soda, cinnamon, coconut and salt. Combine the egg, yogurt, milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, zucchini and vanilla and mix well. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups 2/3s full. Top with additional coconut (we used a lot!). Bake at 350F for 20-25 minutes.

Makes 1 dozen
