Great as a quick breakfast, or a side dish with dinner. These muffins can quickly convert those who think they don't like zucchini.

Ingredients
  • * 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • * 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • * 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • * 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • * 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • * 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • * 1 cup milk
  • * 1 cup shredded unpeeled zucchini
  • * 1 clove garlic, minced
  • * 3/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • * 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • * 4 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray 12 cup muffin tin with cooking spray. Do NOT use paper liners - they stick to the muffins.
  2. Mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
  3. 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.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Serve warm. Refrigerate leftovers.

What a great idea for a muffin. I must try these. Nice change from the usual sweet ones. Thanks for sharing & 5 forks


These were perfect! Seriously, I can't figure out what went wrong with those who had a problem(on the other site). I am adamant about making a recipe nearly to the letter of how it's submitted in order to rate it fairly, and this was no different. I followed the recipe exactly other than I added a dash of cayenne and black pepper. There were no issues of saltiness, and they certainly weren't over OR underdone. They were lovely both in taste and texture. I am so glad I made these as a "test". Now, I will be making them again because they disappeared so quickly, this time! :) Oh, some of us did add a lil butter to these, while warm...mmmmmm....! Thank you for the recipe! :)


These sound and look amazing!!! If I had some bacon and cheddar, I'd be making these right now!


I've been eyeing these over on AR! Will try them soon!


Hi everyone! I'm not sure why some people had trouble with the recipe. I noticed on a few reviews people mentioned that they did *not* drain the zucchini. Hello? The recipe doesn't tell you to drain the zucchini - it needs the moisture. Anyway, Keni, I'm glad you liked them, and I hope they work out for anyone else who tries them!
