ZUCCHINI-BLUEBERRY MUFFINS WITH CINNAMON TOAST CRUNCH® STREUSEL

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F (400°F for dark or nonstick pan). Place paper baking cup in each of 12 regular-size muffin cups.
• Drain can of blueberries (from muffin mix box); rinse and set aside. In large bowl, stir together muffin mix, milk, oil, eggs, zucchini and vanilla just until blended. Gently fold in blueberries. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups. Top with crushed cereal.
• Bake 16 to 21 minutes or until golden brown and tops spring back when touched. Cool 5 minutes; remove from pan. Serve warm.

ZUCCHINI MUFFINS WITH CINNAMON CRUNCH TOPPING

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Using 1 tablespoon softened butter, generously butter the cups and the top of a standard 12-cup muffin tin. Set aside.
• Cut the tips off the zucchini and grate the zucchini into shreds on a box grater. Pile the zucchini onto a clean dish towel and squeeze tightly over the sink to remove any excess water. Set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, sift 1 cup whole-wheat flour with the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt, then whisk to combine. Set aside.
• To a medium bowl, add the melted butter, milk, applesauce, honey, eggs, lemon juice and vanilla, and whisk to combine. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the liquid inside. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold everything together, being careful not to overmix. Just before completely combined, sprinkle the zucchini over the top, breaking up any clumps with your hands, and finish folding the batter until combined. Using a spoon or scoop, divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups. (It should come to the top of each cup).
• In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon whole-wheat flour with the turbinado sugar and cinnamon. Using your fingers, work in the remaining 1 tablespoon softened butter until everything is evenly moist. Sprinkle the mixture over the tops of the muffins, then carefully brush away any crumbs that spill onto the top of the muffin tin. Bake the muffins, rotating halfway through, until the tops form firm domes, the sugar topping caramelizes and the muffins are cooked through, 24 to 26 minutes. (The tops should spring back when lightly pressed.) Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the tin for 15 minutes before using a small offset spatula to transfer them to a wire rack to cool for at least another 10 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

CINNAMON STREUSEL OAT FLOUR MUFFINS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Place paper baking cup in each of 12 regular-size muffin cups.
• In small bowl, mix 1/4 cup oat flour, the brown sugar, oats, tapioca starch and 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon until blended. Mix in butter until mixture is crumbly. Set aside.
• In large bowl, mix 2 3/4 cups oat flour, the granulated sugar, baking powder, xanthan gum, 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon and the salt until blended. In medium bowl, beat eggs, milk, oil and vanilla with whisk until blended. Mix egg mixture into flour mixture with spoon until moistened.
• Divide batter evenly among muffin cups; sprinkle streusel over batter. Bake 20 to 24 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove from pan to cooling rack; cool 10 minutes.
• In small bowl, mix Glaze ingredients until smooth and thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle over muffins.

ZUCCHINI LEMON BLUEBERRY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease or line the cups of a standard-size, 12-cup muffin tin. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, zucchini, milk, oil, and vanilla extract until well-combined.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir until ALMOST combined. Add the lemon zest and blueberries and stir gently until incorporated and just until the dough is combined. Don't overstir or your muffins could end up being tough!
• Divide batter between muffin tins.
• Bake for about 30 minutes, until the edges of the muffins are golden, the tops are springy, and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
• Meanwhile, mix together the glaze. Into a small bowl, sift the powdered sugar. Add the lemon juice and stir with a whisk until a thick glaze forms. It should be a bit thicker than glue. (But don't worry, it will taste much better than that!)
• Remove muffins from oven and set on a metal rack. Let cool for 5-10 minutes, then transfer muffins to a wire cookie rack placed over paper towels to catch glaze drips.
• At this point you have a couple of choices. You can drizzle on the glaze now, knowing that some of it might melt into the warm muffins rather than stay on the top. Or you can wait until they've cooled, then drizzle the glaze on so that it stays on the top. Both methods result in delicious muffins, so it's up to you!
• Allow the glaze to solidify, another few minutes.
• Devour!

• In a large bowl, sift together, the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar, sift again (sifting twice!); add in the lemon zest and the coated blueberries; toss gently to mix.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, cream (or milk, if using), melted butter and the almond extract until well combined.
• Add the egg mixture to the flour/berry mixture, mix gently with a wooden spoon JUST until combined (mixture is supposed to have lumps, and NOT be smooth, DO NOT OVERMIX!).
• Spoon batter evenly into each muffin tin.
• Sprinkle with streusel topping.
• Bake for approximately 25 minutes (for jumbo muffins), or until muffins test done with a toothpick.
• Cool for 15-20 minutes and remove with a butter knife slipped gently underneath the paper to lift, set to a wire rack.
• **NOTE** This can be made using frozen blueberries, but will take longer to bake, also to double the recipe, prepare in two seperate mixing bowls adding the same ingredients to each, do not double the recipe and make in one bowl!
