Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 21-cup muffin tin by greasing each cup or lining with paper liners. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the grated zucchini, carrots, and vanilla extract until well combined. (2 minutes)

04

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground nutmeg, ground cinnamon, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. (1 minute)

05

Step

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (3 minutes)

06

Step

Gently fold in the raisins and chopped walnuts. (1 minute)

07

Step

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full. (2 minutes)

08

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 17 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (17 minutes)

09

Step

Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)

For extra flavor, toast the walnuts lightly before chopping.
Squeeze as much excess moisture as possible from the grated zucchini to prevent soggy muffins.
Feel free to substitute other nuts or dried fruits according to your preference.
These muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage.
