The version with quinoa is higher protein (always a good thing for a vegan bread), but I have to admit I preferred the flavor of the amaranth, which offers a more delicate crumb. While it’s not terribly sweet, the flavor is subtle and pleasing–a perfect bread for breakfast or snacking.

FYI: Swapping out the sugar for stevia in the recipe was a bit challenging, since stevia can be up to 100 times sweeter than sugar, and alters both the chemical makeup and consistency of the bread …

These are arguably the best ever zucchini bread muffins:
(1) made with whole wheat and freshly ground oat flour,
(2) without refined sugar,
(3) with loads of zucchini,
(4) with carrots, too,
(5) and sweet, tender apples!

On top of the delicious flavor and healthy ingredients, the texture is delightfully light, fluffy and moist.
 

It’s an easy recipe, and clean eating with only natural sweeteners. Even the pickiest kids will love it!

Here are the ingredients you’ll need to make 16 delicious Zucchini Bread Muffins:
 

2½ cups shredded zucchini (approx 2 large zucchini)
1 tsp salt
¾ cup shredded apple (approx 1 medium apple)
¾ cup shredded carrot (approx 1 large carrot)
½ cup melted butter
½ cup honey
½ cup maple syrup
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1 cup oat flour
2 cups whole grain flour (wheat, spelt or any combination of the two)
2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp baking powder
3 tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp nutmeg

Tips for the ingredients:

– You can change the quantities of carrots and zucchini in this recipe, as long as the combined total is 3 1/4 cups.

– If fresh zucchini is unavailable, you can make these muffins using frozen zucchini. To freeze zucchini in advance to use later in the year: Shred as normal, sprinkle with salt and allow to sit. Wring out excess moisture and store in a freezer bag.

– Consider adding dried cranberries, raisins or coconut flakes to the batter in this recipe for even more flavor and nutrition!

– It needs the egg for structure and texture.

– You could change up the nuts and use pecans or walnuts instead. I prefer them toasted, so I keep toasted ones in the freezer, then throw them in things when I need them.

– Cooking time is for my microwave. It usually cooks in 3 minutes for me. It’s important not to over-cook it, but obviously not to under-cook it either. It will puff up in the microwave, then sink down again. It pulls away from the sides. I never use cooking spray.

Here are the ingredients you’ll need to make a mug of this healthy and delicious Almond-Banana Bread recipe:
