The perfect savory muffin filled with grated zucchini, chives and cheese that uses Bisquik Baking Mix.
INGREDIENTS
2 cups Bisquick Baking Mix
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
1/4 cup butter; melted
1 egg
2/3 cup milk
1 cup grated zucchini; about 1 medium-sized zucchini
1 tbsp. chopped chives
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a medium bowl, combine the Bisquick Baking Mix with the egg, melted butter, milk and grated zucchini.
Stir with a wooden spoon until everything is combined.
Add the chopped chives, grated cheddar cheese and blend.
Divide the muffin batter evenly among the muffin cups that have been lined with paper muffin liners, filling two-thirds full.
Bake in a pre-heated 375 degree oven for 15 – 18 minutes.
Baking Tip: If you use paper muffin liners, try spraying them with non-stick baking spray before adding the batter. The paper liners will peel off easily after the puffs have baked.
NOTES
The muffins are done when a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffin comes out clean.
Do you peel zucchini for muffins?
There’s no need to peel the zucchini for this recipe. In fact, I like the green specs of zucchini throughout the muffins.
How many zucchinis is 1 cup grated?
For the 1 cup of grated zucchini this recipe calls for, you’ll need about a medium-sized zucchini.
Do I need to squeeze the excess water out of the zucchini?
I used garden-fresh zucchini which tends to have a lot more moisture than a store-bought zucchini. However, I didn’t squeeze the excess water out of the zucchini once it was grated. You want some of that water to add moisture to the muffins.
If you find that there is a ton of water collecting as you grate the zucchini, then yes, add the zucchini to a paper towel and lightly squeeze the excess water out.
HOW TO FREEZE MUFFINS
Once the muffins have cooled, place them on a baking tray that’s been lined with parchment paper. Place the baking tray in the freezer to flash freeze the muffins.
After about 30 minutes you can remove the muffins from the tray to a freezer-safe plastic bag or air-tight container.
