Lightly sweet, perfectly moist, and full of shredded carrots & zucchini! Kids and adults both love these Carrot Zucchini Toddler Muffins.

I am always looking for sneaky ways to get my toddler to eat more vegetables.

I think he does a pretty good job with most vegetables. He could eat broccoli, asparagus, and green beans for days. We do struggle with the leafy green vegetables, though. He is yet to appreciate a tossed salad.

I have to sneak all his kale and spinach into smoothies and soups.  He also loves kale chips which I’m not complaining about.

While these muffins don’t contain any leafy greens, they are absolutely delicious for both toddlers and adults. They are full of shredded zucchini and carrots,  lightly sweet, and perfectly moist.

These muffins are perfect for play groups, afternoon snacks, or baked off as regular size muffins for breakfast.

We’ve talked about how I need muffins in my life before. These muffins were enjoyed by everyone in my house and I’m sure we will be making them again and again!
