Anything that has zucchini included for a dish sparks my interest. One thing about zucchini, it’s such a subtle ingredient when it’s added to a dessert that I love. Honestly, it doesn’t sound great, but it keeps the baked goods super moist. These lemon zucchini muffins by Laura in The Kitchen look super vibrant and I love how the yellow lemon color pops out. The combination of thyme, lemon, and zucchini sounds herby and exotic which I would be interested in making because of it.

Next, place the liners in a muffin pan, and use an ice cream scooper to divide the batter evenly in the pan. In a small bowl, mix together the ingredients for the topping and sprinkle on for each muffin. Bake the muffins for about 20 minutes or until golden brown.
