2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup water
4 eggs
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.

Tips:

  • Choose the right zucchini: Use young, tender zucchini for best results. Larger zucchini can be used, but you may need to remove the seeds and grate the zucchini instead of chopping it.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature: This will help the muffins to rise quickly and develop a tender crumb.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before storing: This will help to prevent the muffins from becoming soggy.

Conclusion:

Butterscotch Zucchini Muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. They are moist and flavorful, with a tender crumb and a sweet butterscotch glaze. These muffins are also a great way to use up extra zucchini from your garden.
