Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- zest of 2 lemons
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt, at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup shredded zucchini
- 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, for tossing the blueberries
- 1 cup confectioner’s sugar
- 2 to 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and grease a 12-cup muffin pan or line it with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine granulated sugar and lemon zest, rubbing them together until fragrant.
- Add melted butter to the lemon sugar and whisk until combined; then whisk in the eggs, Greek yogurt, and vanilla until smooth.
- Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined—avoid overmixing.
- Stir in the grated zucchini evenly into the batter.
- Toss blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour and gently fold them into the batter.
- Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling them almost to the top.
- Bake for 18 to 24 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For glaze, whisk confectioner’s sugar with lemon juice until smooth and drizzle over the cooled muffins.
Notes
For taller muffins, fill every other muffin cup or use a second pan.
Make sure to use room temperature ingredients for a better texture.
