DAIRY- AND GLUTEN-FREE ZUCCHINI ORANGE CHOCOLATE CHIP MUFFINS
My favorite muffin recipe is a chocolate chip orange zucchini bread recipe found on Allrecipes! But when I had to cut out dairy and gluten, I had to get creative to get the same satisfaction out of a healthier version. These turned out great! Be sure to add the glaze - it really makes the muffin.
