Heat oven to 375°F. Place a paper baking cup in each of 12 regular-size muffin cups.
In a large bowl, stir flour, brown sugar, cocoa, baking soda, and salt with a spoon. In a small bowl, beat buttermilk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla with a whisk until blended. Pour the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture; stir until just moistened.
Stir in zucchini, chocolate chips, and walnuts.
Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.
Bake 20 to 24 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes; remove from the pan. Serve warm or cool.
Zucchini typically isn’t peeled when used in baking—just go ahead and shred!
Try dark chocolate chips for a deeper chocolate flavor.
