Zucchini Muffins

This final zucchini muffin recipe is the actual recipe from The Zucchini Cookbook by Paula Simmons. This, too, was a bit on the dry side. However, the book is from 1975 so I'm sure we've changed how we like our muffins over the last thirty something years. This is a sort of struesel muffin (that's what it became called as everyone was determining which muffin was which) with a cinnamon sugar top. I will warn you that the muffins will go bad after a few days if left on the counter.
