Zucchini Bran Muffin Recipe for Kids

Zucchini Bran Muffins……Sound healthy don’t they?

Well these muffins are healthy but also very delicious! So delicious that both of my picky 4 year olds love them and EVEN beg me to make them.

I found this recipe a long time ago when I was desperately seeking for anything nutritious for my kids who are under weight.

Did I mention that it’s super easy to make? The only thing that was missing from my kitchen was the zucchini. I’m not a huge baker and I already had most of the ingredients.

Oh!! I almost forgot to mention that my son loves nuts but my daughter doesn’t. So on half of the batch I added chopped walnuts and on the second dozen I left them alone.

I usually use them as snacks after school but you can even eat them for breakfast!

I can’t take any credit at all for this recipe. I found it on this awesome website called www.SuperHealthyKids.com Check it out!
