    Notes

    If it's hot out baked goods won't last as long on the countertop, so you may want to store them in the refrigerator. These also freeze really well for a snack or breakfast option later.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is the best gluten free flour to use for muffins?

    My favorite gluten free flours for baking are King Arthur Measure for Measure Gluten Free Flour and Bob's Redmill Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour. I've had really good success using these two flours in my recipes.

    Should I peel the zucchini for muffins?

    You don't need to peel zucchini for muffins. However, if you are hiding the zucchini in the muffin for a picky eater peeling it makes it really hard to see in the muffins.
