Savory Cheddar Zucchini Muffins image

I developed this recipe when I had an abundance of zucchini and wanted a muffin to have with a chicken dinner. These savory muffins are great as a quick breakfast too! They're a hit even with those who think they don't like zucchini!

Time 55m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup butter, melted
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup milk
1 cup shredded unpeeled zucchini
1 clove garlic, minced
¾ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
4 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray 12 muffin cups with cooking spray.
  • Mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
  • In another bowl, stir together the butter, egg, milk, zucchini, and garlic until well blended. Mix the flour mixture into the milk mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time, stirring between additions, until the flour mixture is incorporated. Fold in the Cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, and crumbled bacon, and pour the batter into the prepared muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Allow muffins to cool slightly before removing from muffin cups; serve warm. Refrigerate leftovers.

I love that these muffins are made with whole wheat flour. It makes them a healthier option.
