Directions

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together first 6 ingredients (through nutmeg); set aside. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, banana, syrup, milk, oil and vanilla. Using a silicone spatula, gently fold wet ingredients into dry ingredients, mixing just until dry ingredients are moistened (lumps may remain); gently stir in zucchini and dark chocolate chips. Scoop batter into a 12-cup muffin pan lined with paper baking cups; sprinkle with mini chocolate chips. Bake in a preheated 350° oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean with just a few moist crumbs attached (about 25 min.). Cool in the pan for 5 min. Move muffins to a wire rack; serve warm or at room temperature.
