Fruity Nutty Zucchini Muffins

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This recipe is a combination of a few different muffin and cake recipes, resulting in a very sweet, moist, and dense dessert-type muffin. I really like the mix of textures and flavors, and those who tried them have all said it reminds them of carrot cake. These are VERY sweet, so use your own judgement and cut back a bit on the sugar if you want (definitely do so if you use anything other than juice-packed or light syrup fruit cocktail). used a yellow summer squash, and the yellow color was so pretty in this. Because of their high moisture content, keep these refrigerated for the best texture and shelf life.

    Fruity Nutty Zucchini Muffins, This recipe is a combination of a few different muffin and cake recipes, resulting in a very sweet, moist, and dense dessert-type muffin I really like the mix of textures and flavors, and those who tried them have all said it reminds them of carrot cake These are VERY sweet, so use your own judgement and cut back a bit on the sugar if you want (definitely do so if you use anything other than juice-packed or light syrup fruit cocktail) used a yellow summer squash, and the yellow color was so pretty in this Because of their high moisture content, keep these refrigerated for the best texture and shelf life , My mom gave us a large tupperware of fruit cocktail that no one ate at a dinner My kids 4 and 6 think the fruit is strange and they love fresh fruit So I found this recipe I loved the vanilla and coconut but found the fruit cocktail strange in them 🙁 I did love how moist they are but we were not wanting to eat more than one I saved the other Half of the batter and froze it and will try adding blueberries like a reviewer stated Glad other reviewers liked them sorry we did not 🙁
