Cherry-Zucchini Muffins with Secret Ingredient

August 20, 2015

What better way to celebrate cherry season than with some cheery cherry muffins? Loaded with fresh cherries and shredded zucchini, these healthy muffins are then topped with a yummy frosting. That’s right, I said “frosting”… on the 21 Day Fix!

1 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour (not regular whole wheat flour, there\'s a difference!)
1/2 cup raw sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup fresh cherries (I used dark, sweet cherries, but I think tart cherries would be amazing in these!)
1 cup grated zucchini (I scoop out the seeds before grating)
1 1/2 cups unsweetened applesauce
6 tbs Cream-Cheesy Frosting

For the Frosting:
1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese
2 tbs fat free greek yogurt
2 tbs coconut oil, melted
1 tbs raw sugar

1.Blend all frosting ingredients in a blender until completely smooth. Put in the refrigerator to set while making the muffins. 2.Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil...
