Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Spray a 12-count muffin pan with nonstick spray or line with cupcake liners.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a large bowl. Set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk the oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk together. Whisk in the shredded zucchini. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk or stir until just combined. Fold in any add-ins you want to include, if any. Avoid over-mixing. Batter is thick.
- Spoon the batter into liners, filling them all the way to the top. Sprinkle with coarse sugar, if desired.
- Bake for 5 minutes at 425°F (218°C); then, keeping the muffins in the oven, reduce heat to 350°F (177°C) and continue baking for another 15-17 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. The total time these muffins take in the oven is about 20-21 minutes, give or take. (For mini muffins, bake 11-13 minutes at 350°F (177°C) the whole time.)
- Allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes in the muffin pan, and then transfer to a wire rack to continue cooling, or enjoy warm.
- Muffins stay fresh covered at room temperature for a few days, then transfer to the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

SUMMER SQUASH MUFFINS
This is a nice way to use up some summer squash. I used yellow summer squash because I have an abundance in my garden, but it would work just as well with zucchini. I used about half as much oil as similar recipes use, but more squash than other recipes. Lots of people sub apple sauce for oil, but in this case, I just subbed extra squash for oil, which does the same thing.Finally, I keep bees and always have lots of honey. If you don't have honey, you should add an extra 1/3 c sugar, a few Tbs of water, and a Tbs of vanilla to give it flavor. I don't use vanilla if I'm using honey, in order to enjoy the honey flavor.

Tips:
- Choose the right zucchini. Small to medium-sized zucchini with tender skin and few seeds are best.
- Grate the zucchini. Grating the zucchini helps it blend into the muffins and provides a moist texture.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter can make the muffins tough.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking the muffins can make them dry.
- Let the muffins cool completely before serving. This will help them hold their shape and flavor.
