There's a hint of cinnamon in these moist, delicious muffins. For a variation, omit the chips and nuts, and add 12 ounces of sweetened, flaked coconut. -Susanne Spicker, North Ogden, Utah

I'm not a big fan of zucchini, but these muffins were surprisingly good. The zucchini flavor was very subtle and the muffins were very moist and flavorful. I loved the crunchy topping and the gooey chocolate chips.

These muffins were delicious! The zucchini added a nice moistness and the chocolate chips gave them a gooey, sweet center. I loved the crunchy topping and the hint of cinnamon. I'll definitely be making these again.
