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.
First, preheat your oven to 350F. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, and sugar until thick and pale. Then, add the oil, vanilla, thyme, shredded zucchini, and lemon zest until fully combined. Fold over the dry ingredients into the mixture.
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.
Overall, the presentation and final results of these lemon zucchini muffins look tasty and it’s a beautiful summer pastry. These would be great for a summer picnic.
