Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium zucchini, grated and squeezed dry
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup chickpea flour (besan)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon turmeric (for color)
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
  • 1 cup plant-based milk (unsweetened)
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (like chives or parsley)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin or use paper liners.
  2. Grate the zucchini. Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel or paper towels and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. This step is key for texture.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, chickpea flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, pepper, turmeric, and nutritional yeast.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the plant-based milk, vegetable oil, and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for two minutes to curdle slightly.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the squeezed zucchini and the fresh herbs.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the muffins cool in the tin for five minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Squeezing the zucchini very dry prevents soggy muffins.
  • These muffins freeze well for quick future breakfasts.
  • Feel free to add other finely chopped vegetables like bell peppers if you like.
  • Chef Tariq suggests a pinch of smoked paprika for depth.
