Ingredients
  

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1⅓ cup sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 cups zucchini grated packed
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter melted
  • cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • ½ tsp nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 cup walnuts chopped (optional)
  • 1 cup dried cranberries optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray the muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until a bit frothy. Add the sugar and vanilla extract, and mix well to combine. Stir in the grated zucchini and the melted butter. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, ground ginger, nutmeg, and salt.


  • Pour the flour mixture into the zucchini mixture and stir to just combine but don't over-mix. Fold in the walnuts and cranberries.


  • Spoon the batter equally into each muffin cup. Fill slightly above the top of the muffin pan.


  • Bake for 22-30 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out mostly clean when poked in the middle. Let cool slightly in the pan before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
