Vegan Zucchini Bread Muffins for when you want a little pocket of zucchini bread goodness on the go!
Oh hey! Long time, no see! If you follow me on Instagram (let’s be friends!) then you’ll see that I’ve been in Europe the past few weeks. We got back late Wednesday night and wasted no time jumping right into work.
And we’re all still trying to get over jet lag. Jemma and I were awake for a while around 4am this morning but then fell asleep and didn’t get out of bed until after 8am. Morning was redeemed when Stephen made us breakfast complete with homemade biscuits. SO, I’m finally ready to sit down and share these muffins with you :)
How to Make Vegan Zucchini Bread Muffins
These muffins are a combination of my Vegan Chocolate Chip Muffins and the Vegan Zucchini Bread that I posted recently. All you need to know is that they’re easy, fluffy, and DELICIOUS!
PLUS zucchini is everywhere and in abundance right now so really you have no reason not to make these this weekend.
I used to make these muffins by first mixing together the wet ingredients and then the dry ingredients before combining them. BUT then I discovered that you ultimately get the same results by just mixing everything together into one big bowl THUS saving yourself a dirty dish to wash.
And don’t forget the OH SO IMPORTANT step of thoroughly wringing the excess moisture out of your grated zucchini. This is not a step that you can skip, mkay!?
Jemma’s FIRST BIRTHDAY is this weekend which is completely mind blowing. I have absolutely no idea how it’s been a whole year since I gave birth to that little one and I’m excited to celebrate.
I hope you have a great weekend that’s filled with LOTS of fluffy muffins.

Love this recipe! A winner over here. I was wondering if you ever tried making this into a cake? I’m about to do it, and I was wondering if the result would be the same
Thank you so much for a fantastic recipe!!! My kids love it!
Do you know how many calories per muffin
these are so easy and delicious i absolutely love them!!!
Did not turn out at all and I faithfully followed the recipe. Did you mean one cup of milk?
I love these muffins, my non-vegan family loves them as well. However I do not like them with peanut butter, I substitute mixed nut butter or mixed nut and seed butter. I will also add walnuts and a few chocolate chips. The best breakfast for a busy day.
yay! So glad that y’al liked them! This is definitely one of my favorite recipes! I often switch out the kind of nut butter that I use and they always turn out great
Super YUM!! We all loved them. I made a second batch with half oat flour to increase the health quotient, which was yummy but not as fluffy. I would add an extra 1 Tbsp white flour to keep the texture and rising power perfect.
yay!! So glad that you liked it!! I’ve been meaning to try these with oat flour! thanks for letting me know how that turned out
Do the muffins freeze well?
yes! I freeze these often!
I used a multi grain all purpose flour came out great smells fantastic can’t wait to taste them
Recipe sounds good but can you tell me what kind of flour did you use?
I used all purpose flour!
