Preheat oven to 400 degrees Farenheit. Grease a muffin tin (or put in muffin liners) and set aside.

Place oats in your food processor and blend until they reach the consistency of flour (about 15-30 seconds), unless you already are using oat flour. Transfer to a medium bowl.

Add in flour, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Stir and set aside.

Put zucchini and carrot into your food processor and blend until they are well chipped into very small pieces.
