Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup grated zucchini, squeezed dry
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and vegetable oil.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the grated zucchini, shredded cheddar cheese, chives, and parsley until evenly distributed.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Ensure your grated zucchini is well-drained to prevent soggy muffins.
  • Feel free to substitute feta cheese for cheddar, or add other herbs like dill or thyme.
  • These muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
