Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare a 12-cup muffin pan with muffin liners and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, white sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, and baking soda, whisking well.
Add the egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients, and mix until combined. Gradually stir in the milk.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips and shredded zucchini until evenly distributed.
Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin liners, adding extra chocolate chips on top if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes.

Notes

For a richer chocolate flavor, consider adding more chocolate chips on top before baking.
Zucchini can be shredded in advance and stored in the fridge until you’re ready to bake.
These muffins store well in an airtight container for several days.
