Ingredients
Dry ingredients:
1½ cup plain flour
¾ cup castor sugar (use more if you use lots of cocoa)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup cocoa
Wet ingredients:
2-2¼ cup grated zucchini
70g melted margarine or butter
1 egg
zest of ¼ lime or 1/8 lemon
The topping:
8-10 pieces of dark (45% cocoa) chocolate cut up into small pieces
Method
Pre-heat oven to 180°C (not fan forced in my oven).
Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl and mix together well.
Grate the zucchini into a separate bowl. In a 3rd small bowl, melt the margarine or butter. Let it cool slightly, then beat in the egg. Zest the lime or lemon.
Add all the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly but don’t over do it.
Spoon into 10 or 12 muffin cases.
