Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Slice the two ends off the zucchini with a knife and cutting board. Use a grater to grate the zucchini into small pieces. Squeeze any excess water out of the zucchini with a paper towel then set the grated zucchini aside.
Place 1/3 cup of maple syrup and the softened butter in a large bowl and stir with a hand mixer, or use a stand mixer, until well combined, scraping the sides with a spatula as necessary. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir to combine. Set aside.
Stir the eggs and vanilla extract into the maple syrup & butter mixture until well combined, then add the grated zucchini in and stir to combine. Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry mixture and stir until just combined, making sure there are no pockets of dry flour in the mixture.
Spread the mixture out evenly in the bowl and divide it into four sections using a spatula. Each section will equal enough batter for 3 muffins. Scoop the muffin mixture into each well in the muffin pan with a spoon, dividing it equally between each well.
Place the silicone muffins pan onto a sheet pan and into the oven, setting the timer for 15 minutes. After the timer goes off, carefully rotate the muffin pan 180 degrees (so the muffins in the front of the oven are now in the back of the oven) and bake for another 10 minutes. Insert a toothpick into one or two muffins to check for doneness after timer goes off. If not done, cook until a toothpick inserted into the middle of a muffin comes out clean.
Once cooked, take the muffins out of the oven and remove from muffin pan. Let cool at 5 minutes before serving.
