Servings: persons

1-1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1/2 teaspoons Ground Nutmeg
1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
1/2 teaspoons Salt
1 whole Large Egg
2/3 cups Sugar
1/2 cups Unsweetened Applesauce
1/3 cups Canola Or Vegetable Oil
2 Tablespoons Yogurt
2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
1 whole Medium Zucchini, Grated
2 whole Lemons, Zested
1 Tablespoon Poppy Seeds
1/4 cups Walnuts, Chopped

1
Preheat oven to 375u00b0F. Grease 10 standard size muffin cups with oil or cooking spray.
2
In a medium-sized bowl, sift together the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. I like to add a heaping teaspoon of cinnamon because I love the flavor.
3
In a large bowl, mix the egg, sugar, applesauce, oil, yogurt, and vanilla until well incorporated. Gradually mix the flour into the wet ingredients. I like to add the flour in three batches. Gently fold in the zucchini, lemon zest, poppy seeds, and walnuts.
4
Spoon the mixture into the muffin pan until you fill up 10 of the tins. Bake for about 20-23 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of one comes out clean. Remove pan from oven. Let the muffins cool for about 10 minutes. Enjoy!
