Big Batch Baked GoodsWe enjoy homemade baked goods for breakfast, but I don’t have time to bake each morning before school. So I devote 1 day a month to making large batches of cinnamon rolls, doughnuts, cream cheese rolls and muffins. I place them in heavy-duty resealable plastic bags labeled with the date. (They freeze for about 2 months.) On busy mornings, it’s a snap to pop a few in the microwave to warm. The kids love the fresh-baked flavor. —Lori T., New London, Texas

I can't really rate this because I changed the recipe by using mashed banana instead of oil and leaving out the walnuts and using sultanas instead of currants. I doubled the recipe and used two eggs which turned out to be way too much egg. It had a horrible rubbery texture and tasted like scrambled eggs with zucchini. Yuck.

Agood muffin, but something seemed to be missing, it was a little on the bland side. Maybe adding more cinnamon or some nutmeg would help.

I doubled the cinnamon, substituted applesauce for the oil and used craisins. Turned out great!

Spray the paper muffin cups with cooking spray and the muffins will not stick to the paper liner.

These muffins were awesome! I substituted applesauce for the canola oil and cranraisins for currants. I tried both cooking spray and paper liners and would recommend the cooking spray....batter stuck to the papers and lost alot of the muffin itself. But the recipe is much better so it's a keeper!

FABULOUS!! The best zucchini recipe that I have found. I made mini muffins and they were barely cooled before they were all eaten.

I am just thrilled with this recipe. I doubled the recipe and I had left over batter so I made some mini muffins also.I baked the minis for 15 minutes. I had no currants so I made half with cranraisins and walnuts and half with fresh strawberries and walnuts like BasketCase61 suggested. I also squeezed out all of the liquid from the grated zuccini. Delicious!!!

I just made 2 variations of these & both were wonderful! 1 I substitute freshly dehydrated tart cherries for the currants & the other I used chopped fresh strawberries for the currents & made sure any extra moisture was squeezed out of the zucchini. Both excellent!

I doubled the recipe and replaced 1/2cup of all purpose flour with whole wheat flour and they were even better.
