Ingredients:

1½ cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup cane sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
1 egg, lightly beaten
½ cup coconut oil, melted
¼ cup milk
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup shredded zucchini
½ cup miniature dark chocolate chips
½ cup chopped walnuts

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 12 muffin cups, or line with paper muffin liners.
2. Combine flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl.
3. Mix egg, oil, milk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl; stir into dry ingredients until just moistened. Fold in zucchini, chocolate chips, and walnuts. Fill prepared muffin cups 2/3 full.
