- Add the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.

- These keto chocolate muffins should be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or see notes for freezing.
Notes
- COOKING SPRAY: These are very moist muffins so you will need to spray the inside of the muffin liners with cooking spray
- NO SQUEEZING OF THE ZUCCHINI REQUIRED: The zucchini is really easy to grate with a box grater and it doesn't need any water squeezed out of it.
- BAKERY STYLE KETO CHOCOLATE MUFFINS: Add a few extra chocolate chips to the tops of the muffins before baking for a bakery style look
- NUTRITION: for 1 muffin
- FREEZING: I like to make a batch of these and then let them cool in the muffin tin then remove them and place them in the freezer on a baking sheet so they can flash freeze for 2 hours. Now you can place them in a freezer bag or a air tight freezer container for up to 3 months.
