- 1 egg
- 1 egg white
- 1/3 c. brown sugar
- 1/4 c. honey
- 1/3 c. non-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 c. coconut oil melted
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 c. zucchini shredded & squeezed dry
- 1/4 c. cocoa powder
- 1 c. flour
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/2 c. chocolate chips
Preheat your oven to 400°. Spray one muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs, brown sugar, honey, yogurt, vanilla & melted oil. Fold in the zucchini that you have squeezed dry of any excess moisture using paper towels.
In a separate bowl, mix the cocoa powder, flour, baking powder & salt. Add to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips and scoop a heaping 1/3 c. of the mixture into each muffin tin. Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
