Otherwise, if you’d like to play around with this specific muffin recipe, you can use maple syrup for honey and flaxeggs for the regular eggs.

You don’t need to peel your zucchini to make zucchini muffins. The peel contains a number of nutrients and is very thin and mild. You won’t be able to taste it. Instead of peeling, simply wash your zucchini, trim the ends, then grate away.
