Sugar Free Homemade Zucchini Muffins

 
When I first posted this recipe it was focused on the sugar free aspect.
However, I have been asked by many readers how to make this recipe low carb or gluten free.
As a result, I have updated this muffin recipe.

I first made these muffins when I had an abundance of zucchini in my garden that needed to get put to use.
While I do enjoy my zucchini cooked as it is, I also like to use it in recipes.
Hence, we have this recipe for zucchini muffins.

As I have mentioned, this recipe has been updated to reflect other dietary needs.

This recipe update uses a basic baking mix. To make this muffin gluten free, simply substitute in a gluten free baking mix. Making this a low carb recipe would mean substituting in a low carb baking mix such as this one. Please make sure that you are using a baking mix and not just a flour alternative.

• Baking Mix- 1 ½ cups. Options: basic baking mix, gluten free baking mix, or low carb baking mix such as this one. Please make sure that you are using a baking mix and not just a flour alternative.

How to make Sugar Free Homemade Zucchini Muffins

We like to eat these muffins while they are warm.

 
However, they are also delicious as left overs the next day. I also like to make these and bring them into my restaurant for my coworkers to enjoy. Everyone likes these especially, when I also bring in some zucchini for them to bring home to enjoy.
