  1. I snagged this recipe off Chowhound.com

    I don't remember who needed some zucchini recipes but here's one.

    What to buy: Look for organic, whole-milk plain yogurt. Most organic
    brands that have "cream on top" are more fluid because they contain
    fewer stabilizers.

    Time/Servings
    Total Time: 40 mins
    Active Time: 20 mins
    Makes: 12 muffins
    Ingredients
    " 2 cups grated zucchini
    " 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
    " 1/2 cup pine nuts plus extra for garnish
    " 2 cups all-purpose flour
    " 1 teaspoon baking powder
    " 1 teaspoon ground ginger
    " 2 large eggs
    " 1/2 cup plain yogurt
    " 1 cup granulated sugar
    " 1/4 cup vegetable oil
    " 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    Instructions
    1. Heat oven to 350°F. Butter and flour the wells of a muffin
    pan; set aside.
    2. Toss zucchini and salt together in a small bowl. Place grated
    zucchini in a sieve over a small mixing bowl and set aside to drain.
    3. Toast pine nuts in a medium frying pan over medium heat until
    golden brown, about 5 minutes.
    4. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking
    powder, and ginger to aerate and remove any lumps; set aside.
    5. In a separate mixing bowl, combine the eggs, yogurt, sugar,
    oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk to combine. Add the dry ingredients
    and stir to just combine. Squeeze the zucchini mixture by the handful
    to release excess water, then add to the batter. Add pine nuts and mix
    just until evenly incorporated (try not to overmix).
    6. Fill each well of the muffin tin with 1/4 cup of batter and
    bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in a muffin comes
    out clean. Set on a cooling rack and cool before removing.
