Anyone else still overrun by zucchini?

If so, here is a great muffin recipe. We used soymilk to make them dairy free.

Title: Zucchini Raisin Nut Muffins
Categories: Muffins
Yield: 22 Servings

517 g Cake Mix Spice Duncan Hines Moist Deluxe,1 18.5 Ounce Package Dry
1 1/4 c 1% Milk
1/2 c Applesauce Unsweetened,Or Canola Oil
4 Egg Whites
2 c Zucchini,Shredded
1/2 c Walnuts,Optional
1/2 c Raisins,Optional

Drain zucchini well especially if it is frozen. Press to get excess moisture out.

Beat cake mix and next 3 ingredients at low speed with an electric mixer 30 seconds. Increase speed to medium, and beat 1 minute, stopping to scrape bottom and down sides of bowl as needed. Stir in zucchini,
and nuts and raisins, if desired. Pour batter evenly into 2 (9"x5") sprayed with Pam loaf pans or 22 regular size muffin cups, sprayed with Pam.

Bake at 350 for 35 to 40 minutes or until a long wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans on a wire rack 10 minutes. Remove from pans to wire rack, and let cool 15 minutes before slicing.

Yield: Makes 2 loaves or 22 regular size muffins.

  • That sounds good. ?BIL & SIL have a garden and brought us two of the biggest zucchinis I have ever seen. ?One of them is almost as big as Thomas. ?I was wondering what to do with them.

    LOL we had a couple of those giantic ones waiting for us when we came back from vacation.

    You can make zucchini bread, muffins, fried zucchini sticks dipped in marinara sauce, zucchini parm, sauteed w/ eggplant and onions- can you tell we had a lot of zucchini?! LOL

  • I have a batch of PW zucchini cakes on the stove as I write this!

    And we did zucchini chocolate chip muffins this afternoon....

    And I steamed some.

    Does that count as overrun? Stick out tongue

    ETA: OMG, those PW zucchini cakes are insanely good!

  • My neighbor keeps giving them to us and they're freakin' huge.  I'm going to make a lot for Brooke's party Saturday - it will be eaten.  My recipe is just sugar, flour, veg oil, baking soda and powder, vanilla extract, eggs, and cinnamon.  And of course, the zucchini.  It's sooooooooooo good.
