Equipment

  • Muffin Tin
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Tea Towel

Ingredients

Vegetables

  • 2 medium Zucchinis, grated

Dairy

  • 1/4 cup Milk
  • 1/2 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese (optional) For extra cheesiness

Eggs

  • 2 large Eggs

Potatoes

  • 1/2 cup Mashed potatoes

Seasonings

  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dried oregano

Breadcrumbs

  • 1/4 cup Breadcrumbs

Seasoning

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin, or line with paper liners.
  • Start by grating your zucchinis. Place the grated zucchini into a clean tea towel, then squeeze out as much moisture as you can.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until smooth. Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper, mixing well to distribute the seasonings.
  • Fold in the squeezed zucchini, mashed potatoes, Parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese (if using), and breadcrumbs. Gently mix until everything is well combined.
  • Spoon the mixture evenly into your prepared muffin tin, filling each cup to the top and pressing down gently to help them hold shape.
  • Sprinkle a pinch of extra breadcrumbs or Parmesan on top of each muffin for added crunch (optional).
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown on top and slightly crispy at the edges.
  • Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before carefully removing them. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

These muffins pair beautifully with a variety of dips, sides, and main dishes. Serve them warm for the best flavor!
