Zucchini-Chocolate Chip Muffins

These are moist and delicious. 

1 1/2 cup flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup oil (I used a spoonful of applesauce plus enough oil to make 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup milk
1 TBSP lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup finely shredded zucchini
1/4 cup miniature chocolate chips
1/4 cup chopped pecans

Preheat oven to 350.  Place liners in 12 muffin cups. 

Sift together first five ingredients.  In a separate bowl (or magic bullet) mix next five ingredients.  Stir wet ingredients into dry ones until moistened.  Fold in zucchini and chocolate chips evenly.  Fill muffin cups.  Top with chopped pecans if desired.  Bake 20 minutes, or until done.

Served with toast, eggs, oatmeal and fruit.
