Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 14

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 pinch sugar
3 large eggs
1 cup buttermilk, 1 cup (240 ml) milk mixed with 1 teaspoon white vinegar
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, or olive oil
1 cup zucchini, shredded
1 cup carrot, shredded
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, plus more for topping
¼ cup chives, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.
  • Make the batter: In a large bowl, stir together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, pepper, and sugar. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, and butter.
  • Add the zucchini, carrot, cheddar cheese, and chives the egg mixture and stir to combine.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the dry ingredients and fold to combine, being careful not to overmix.
  • Using an ice cream scoop, divide the batter between the muffin cups, filling almost completely.
  • Sprinkle more cheddar cheese on top of the muffins.
  • Bake for 18 minutes, rotating the muffin tin halfway through baking, until browned on top and a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Let cool for 10 minutes before removing the muffins from the tin. Serve or store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • Enjoy!

These muffins were a great way to use up some leftover zucchini. They were easy to make and they turned out moist and flavorful. I'll definitely be making them again.

These muffins were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more spices or herbs next time to give them more flavor.

I'm not a big fan of zucchini, but I actually really liked these muffins. They were moist and flavorful, and the cheddar cheese helped to balance out the zucchini flavor.

Overall, these muffins were pretty good. They were easy to make and they had a nice flavor. I think they would be even better with some fresh herbs or vegetables added to the batter.

These muffins were a bit dry for my taste, but they still had a good flavor. I think I'll try adding some more moisture next time, maybe some sour cream or applesauce.

These zucchini cheddar muffins turned out amazing! They're moist, flavorful, and the perfect grab-and-go breakfast or snack. I added a bit of diced ham and chopped red bell pepper for extra flavor, and they were a hit with my family.
