It’s zucchini overload time and thanks to a generous neighbor I have found myself the recipient of several. I am not a lover of zucchini other than using it in breads, muffins and cakes. So grate it up and make a batch of something yummy is my motto.
Today I share yet another recipe from my Grandma Bonnie’s well worn spiral notebooks. Her breads were always top notch and this recipe is one of those that I go back to time and time again. Simple and quick, just like I like, this one is easy to whip up and enjoy anytime.
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups flour
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Wet Ingredients
- 2 eggs slightly beaten
- 1/3 cup oil
- 2 cups zucchini shredded
Servings: muffins
Instructions
- Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl. Gently beat eggs and oil together. Add zucchini to the mixture and blend. Add wet ingredients to the flour mixture and mix until just moistened. Scoop into greased muffin pans or use muffin liners. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Let cool before eating.

Definitely zucchini overload here at our house as they and summer squash are growing like crazy in our garden. I just made loaves of blueberry-zucchini (tons of blueberries too!) bread this morning and yum, they are tasty! We do like zucchini and I have lots of recipes for zucchini fries, zucchini pizza bites, and zucchini casseroles. But we also just like to toss it in olive oil, cover it with either bread crumbs or parmesan cheese and stick it in the oven or grill it along with the squash.
What a treasure to have this recipe collection. Have you read the book The Kitchen Front by Jennifer Ryan? It came to mind upon reading this post. I just finished the book and think you would love it. The focus is on food and four strong women. Lots of wonderful messages incorporated into the storyline. An uplifting, and powerful, read.
Sounds and looks yummy. Thanks for sharing I printed it out!
I love Zucchini muffins! How wonderful to have your grandmother´s recipe. I love the picture of her and the cabbage patch doll. Precious.
