2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon anise seeds
1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom (optional)
1 pound zucchini (about 2 medium)
3 large eggs
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
Zest of 1 orange, plus 1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
Orange Glaze
Chervil sprigs, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a muffin tin with ten 4 1/2 ounce paper tulip cups. Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and spices. Set aside.
