Hi friends!
This past weekend I made two batches of these Zucchini Carrot Apple Muffins and I felt the need to share them with you again. I first shared this recipe on the blog waaaaayyyyy back in 2011. Then I updated the photos in 2015….and then again yesterday ?
To me, they’re the perfect summer AND fall muffin. They’re great for using up all that zucchini you probably have around all summer and then you can go pick apples in the fall and make them again!
I store them in the fridge. If you prefer them sweeter, you can add more sugar. To make them dairy-free you could sub oil for melted butter. My original recipe also had 1/3 cup applesauce but I made them yesterday without it (twice) and they turned out just fine. You could experiment with swapping applesauce for some of the sugar if you wanted.
Here’s how you make them:

Measure the zucchini, apple and carrots AFTER you squeeze the water out of them. I used 1 medium large zucchini, one large apple and 8-10 baby carrots.
Just look at all the shredded fruits and veggies packed in there. Little Miss and I devoured like 6 of these yesterday.
Be sure to let me know if you make them this summer.
