- ¼ cup coconut oil melted
- ⅓-½ cup real maple syrup depending on your sweetness level
- 1 ripe banana
- ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 eggs room temperature
- ½ tablespoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 ¾ cup whole wheat flour
- ½ cup walnuts
- ½ cup chocolate chips optional

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare 15 muffin tin vessels with liners or by greasing.
In a large bowl, mash the ripe banana. Add maple syrup, Greek yogurt, vanilla and eggs. Combine well. Stir in the melted coconut oil.
Place flour in the bowl. On top of that, add cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Stir into the wet ingredients until just combined.
Add walnuts, chocolate chips, and zucchini. Mix just enough to combine, but make sure you get to the bottom of the bowl.
Fill muffin vessels ¾ of the way full. Bake for 16-20 minutes, until a toothpick can be inserted and when removed, comes out clean.
