Baking Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a muffin tin by greasing it or lining with muffin liners.
  2. Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl: white whole wheat flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. Mix the wet ingredients in another bowl: cooked mashed sweet potatoes, shredded zucchini, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil.
  4. Fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until just blended.
  5. Scoop the batter into the muffin tins, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake the muffins for 22-26 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  7. Cool the muffins in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
