Zucchini Muffins with Chocolate Chips

Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle ½ the rolled oats in the bottom of each muffin cup.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon, set aside.

In another bowl, combine the egg, light brown sugar, greek yogurt, vanilla extract, apple sauce, and coconut oil. Using a spatula, mix until all the ingredients are combined. Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently begin to fold it all together. Work out any flour pockets but do not overmix the batter. Fold in the grated zucchini and chocolate chips.

Divide the batter between the muffin cups. Sprinkle the remaining rolled oats on top.

Bake the muffins for 14-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffin comes out with just a few crumbs. Allow muffins to cool completely.
