    Nice! Good job. I have a couple of zucchini I got from my SiL. I will have to try this (tweaked for GF, of course!!)

      I was suprised at how good these were, to be honest! Let me know if you try them! (And how do you make them gluten-free? Is it just the type of flour?)

        I used this recipe to twice now as gluten free muffins, just swap the regular for a gluten free all purpose flour (I used the El Peto brand) and they turned out amazing. I also reduced the sugar to 1/2cup and substituted the raisins for dairy free chocolate chips, . . .my 4 year old son can not get enough of them!!

    Zucchini all the things! We just made zucchini brownies this weekend. And they were fantastic. Why does zucchini make everything taste better? I’ll never know.

    Yum! I love banana bread and zucchini bread, but I’ve never had them combined! Pinned!

      They’re so delish, Emily! You’ll have to try them! And the banana makes it even more moist!

    Looks so good! Zucchini bread reminds me of my grandma, she used to always make it, and I remember it took me a while before would try it, haha! Boy was I missing out 🙂

      Oh, it took Mr. Suburble a while before he really came around to zucchini breads and muffins. He still isn’t a huge fan of zucchini in meals, but he’s definitely embraced the zucchini baking!

      Yes! I actually grew something and then ate it! It’s been pretty awesome with the cucumers and zucchinis. The tomatoes and the beans? Those are another story. 🙁

    YUM! That zucchini is impressive. You did good this year. I often find myself missing an ingredient but rarely am I able to successfully improvise as well as you have. These look delicious.

      I think it was my grumbly stomach that helped me to improvise the way I did. There’s something about a craving for baked goods that causes me to become an instant genius.

      Of course, once the carbs hit my mouth, I’m back to my old IQ. 😉

      I think that Spring and Fall are going to be the months where we cross over a bit. Though Australia is always quite a bit hotter than Canada, right? (Pffft…. I’m so worldly… I should know this!)

    I love anything with zucchinis. It makes the baking goods so moist.

      You’re so right. I also almost always add a bit more zucchini than the recipe calls for. I live on the edge like that! 😉

    I tried these with a mini muffin tin as I couldn’t find my standard one. I usually cut the bake time by 5 minutes with minis but in this case they were uncooked doing that. Not worried about anyone getting sick as there is no egg in it but popped them back in for a few in hopes of making them a little more done. Delicious either way though. Quick easy vegan treats are the best.

      Good to know! I often cut my mini muffins down to about 17-18 minutes too (for some reason, that’s a lucky number with minis for me!) – but if they come out uncooked… yikes! I’ll definitely give these a try in my little tins – maybe it’s a moisture thing? Thank you so much for commenting!

    These look DELISH! Do you think I could substitute greek yogurt for the applesauce?? I just stumbled upon your blog and love it!

      Oh, I’m positive that you could, Alexandra. I have a great banana chocolate chip recipe that uses yogurt, and it is a no-fail recipe. Of course, it won’t be vegan anymore, but something tells me that you aren’t too concerned with that! 😉

    What kind of flour?

      Kim- I just used regular white all-purpose flour. You could probably get away with whole wheat flour, or half-white, half-whole wheat. It might change the texture just a bit.

      Let me know if you try them! I’d love to hear your feedback!

    Could these be switched up with pumpkin? I love that these are all healthy ingredient s. Made 2 dozen last night for breakfasts for our five children to go along with a smoothie. My husband tried one this morning and gave the thumbs up. Hoping pumpkin banana muffins this same way could switch it up a bit because muffins are the perfect grab and go with our hectic schedule. Even better when the muffins are perfectly healthy brain fuel for the kids to start their school day. Great recipe! Thanks for sharing!

      Alisha, I don’t see why you couldn’t use pumpkin. I would probably taste the batter prior to scooping it in the tins to be sure that the bananas and sugar were sweet enough to work with the pumpkin puree.

      Let me know how they turn out! I’d love to sprinkle the top of pumpkin banana muffins with some seeds. So yummy!

    Came across this recipe after googling ‘banana zucchini muffins’. This is exactly what I’m looking for. My toddler sons are, despite us always putting all foods in front of them, the pickiest eaters. Figured this would be a good way to get some veggies in them. Do you think it would work to add a few chocolate chips to the mix? Thanks!

      Oh Becks, I definitely think that chocolate chips would work in these muffins. I know that my kids would definitely appreciate a few in the mix! 😉

      And I hear you on the picky kids. Mine would gladly eat plain noodles every day of their lives. Not frustrating at all. 😛

        Great! I’ll be making these tomorrow. It’s SO frustrating! Ever since our kids started on solids, we always gave them everything. And they both ate whatever we put in front of them until they each turned about 15 months…it’s like a switch flipped and they stopped eating all those foods and only eat a handful of items. Ugh! 😛

          Soooo been there… whenever we go to a restaurant we just have to find out if they serve grilled cheese.

          Because that’s ALL they will eat at a restaurant. No…. not picky at all. 😛

      Michelle, I’m sorry that they didn’t turn out for you. It’s strange, because they’ve always worked out for me – but I guess everyones’s tastes are different. Best of luck finding the winning recipe for you and your family!

    My daughter and I made these today, and they are delicious! We used 1/2 cup choc chips and 1/2 cup pecans in place of the cup of raisins. We will definitely be using this recipe again. Thank you!

    This recipe is super delish, but I would defo cut out most of the sugar. I used 1/4 c and that was still too much. Also, it needs some adjusting on it’s density. For me, it was way too moist.

      Hi Jess! I wonder – were you using unsweetened applesauce? Or maybe I just like things a bit sweeter (which is entirely true).

      As for the density issue, I’ll keep that in mind the next time I make these muffins. Thank you so much for the comment!

        I used unsweetened applesauce. That was a good thought though. I am not accustomed to lots of sugar in my recipes. I just made this again this morn and reduced the sugar to two tbs. we will see. I also drained the zucchini and added a tad more flour.

            I’m so glad you liked it, Jess! Nuts give such a nice texture in muffins; I always go for the sweet of raisins, but I think I need to reach for the walnuts more often.

          Just two tbsp!! And it turned out! That’s fantastic news. (Also, I am very jealous of your not-so-sweet-tooth; I am the kind of girl that digs through her children’s Hallowe’en candy for the sweetest little morsels – it’s terrible, I know). Once my kitchen gets sorted – it’s in a chaotic renovation right now – I am going to try this recipe with your modifications. Thank you for sharing! I’m excited to give it a whirl!

    These are a yummy moist treat! I add 1/2 of fine shred carrots too. I didn’t use as much sugar as mentioned and threw in some flax seeds 🙂

    I just made these muffins and was sad at their turn out. The bottoms of the muffins turned out really gummy and I have no idea what I did wrong. I think I followed the directions pretty close. If anyone has any idea what I did wrong I would sure love to know. Thanks!

      Oh Tia, that IS disappointing. Did you check the muffins with a toothpick while they were cooking – were they cooked all the way through when they came out? I wish I had an answer here that could explain it. Hopefully someone else can chime in.

    Hello. I see that you don’t update your blog too often. I know that writing articles is boring
    and time consuming. But did you know that there is a tool that allows you to create new articles using existing content (from article
    directories or other blogs from your niche)? And
    it does it very well. The new articles are
    high quality and pass the copyscape test. You should
    try miftolo’s tools
