Almond Flour Gluten-Free Zucchini Muffins with Greek yogurt

Nothing beats an amazing zucchini muffin! What I love about these muffins is they have unique flavor. The combination of flours used with Greek yogurt and pumpkin pie spice yields a moist, fluffy, tangy, perfectly sweet treat!

If you love zucchini muffins and are looking for something that has that familiar coffee house or childhood muffin with a little spin, these are for you!!

How to Make Zucchini Muffins:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. And pop liners into your muffin pan. Cut the ends off of your zucchini and grate into shreds using a box grater.

In a small bowl, combine the flours, baking soda and pumpkin pie spice.

Beat the sugar, yogurt, and eggs in your stand mixer until the sugar is incorporated.

Add the flour mixture a little at a time to the egg-yogurt mixture and beat on medium speed until combined. Add the shredded zucchini and fold into the batter until incorporated.

Transfer the muffin batter to the lined muffin tray. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until muffins are golden-brown and test clean.

Recipe Adaptations:

  • You can easily replace the cane sugar with coconut sugar to keep these refined sugar-free.
  • Replace the Greek yogurt with non-dairy yogurt OR full-fat canned coconut milk to make them dairy-free!
  • You can replace the almond flour with hazelnut flour or rice flour.
  • Don’t replace the coconut flour with any other type of flour, as it absorbs more liquid than other flours.
  • In order to make these zucchini muffins paleo, replace the cane sugar with coconut sugar and replace the Greek yogurt with coconut milk yogurt or full-fat coconut milk.

These are sooooo good! Thank you for a good and simple recipe that uses almond flour rather than a gluten-free blend. Made these super tasty!

Do you have to squeeze out the moisture from the grated zucchini ?

Can these muffins be cooked in an instant pot. If yes, for how long would you cook them? Thanks.
