Ingredients
🍓 2 cups of all purpose flour
🍓 1 tbsp of baking powder
🍓 1/2 tsp of baking soda
🍓 1/4 tsp of salt
🍓 1 tbsp of granulated sugar
🍓 1 cup of shredded zucchini

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a 12 cup muffin tin with muffin wrappers. Set aside.
In a food processor finely shred the zucchini. When done, wrap the shredded zucchini in paper towel and start pressing the water out of it. Making sure that most of the water is out of the zucchini before using it in the muffins.
In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, salt and chocolate chips.
In a separate smaller bowl, mix the grated zucchini, melted butter, maple syrup, sour cream, and egg.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture. Mix until fully combined.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
Let cool for 10 minutes before removing from the muffin tin.
