Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Gently fold in the grated zucchini.
Spoon the batter evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
Sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon on top of each muffin for extra flavor.

Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
