Zucchini Muffins

This recipe came from one of my best friend Lydia's momma.  The recipe was enough for two loaves of bread, but I only have one bread pan - so I decided to make muffins. The best part about them? They take a quarter of the time.  Short on time? Yeah, me too.

Jenna, this one's for you -

Donna's Zucchini Bread (or muffins)

3 eggs, beaten
1 tsp vanilla
2 1/4 cup sugar
1 c. cooking oil
2 c. shredded zucchini
3 c. flour
1 tsp soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
3 tsp cinnamon

Directions:

Sift together flour, soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Then mix in all other ingredients by the order listed.

Bake in 2 greased and floured bread pans (or 1 bread pan and 1 muffin pan, or 2 muffin pans) for one hour at 350*F.

But wait - there's more!

Did you read the 1 cup oil part and kind of cringe? Yeah, me too. What happens if you shred too much zucchini? What else can you do with it? Make more muffins!  I made a second batch substituting a cup of apple sauce for the oil and adding 1 mushed banana. They turned out really scrumptious and my co-workers were happy that I made the second batch.
