Muffins... x4

My favorite zucchini muffin recipe, received from a piano teacher I used to work with. 

They turn out great every time, but there's only so much sweet stuff you can handle. 

Are there recipes for savory zucchini muffins? Of course! And me being me, I wanted to try multiple recipes... Savory recipe #1 was a major flop. It uses chickpea flour, which I don't have, so I substituted almond flour. Google says it's a good substitute and you can swap it one to one... Maybe the recipe was wrong. Maybe I measured something incorrectly. Regardless, the batter was soupy and the muffins took forever to cook. They ended up as strangely textured squishy disks that didn't hold together. Smelled great! 


This little guy was a fan! 


G thought the flavor was good. We ended up frying them in a pan like fritters for breakfast. 

Recipe #2 was a little better. This also uses almond flour. The texture inside reminds me of egg bake. They taste okay. 

Recipe #3 was the best of the three, but not one I'm eager to repeat. It's fine, just not amazing. This uses flour and cheddar cheese. 


A friend of mine sent me a fourth recipe (unprompted!) that I will have to try. Maybe that one will be a keeper! 😅
