Time 1h15m

Yield Makes one dozen

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 stick unsalted butter, melted, plus more for brushing (optional)
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 cup toasted wheat germ
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup milk
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 cup shredded zucchini (from 1 small zucchini)
1 cup finely shredded Gruyere (3 ounces)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with baking cups, or lightly brush with butter. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, wheat germ, baking powder, sugar, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, whisk together butter, milk and eggs. Stir wet ingredients into dry until just combined. Fold in zucchini and 2/3 cup cheese.
  • Divide batter evenly among muffin cups and sprinkle with remaining 1/3 cup cheese. Bake until golden and tops spring back when lightly touched, about 18 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes in tin, then transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.

These muffins are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I might reduce the amount of sugar next time.

These muffins were so easy to make! I didn't have any Gruyere cheese, so I used cheddar cheese instead. They still turned out great.

I added a cup of chopped walnuts to these muffins and they were delicious! The walnuts added a nice crunch and nutty flavor.

I made these muffins with whole wheat flour and they turned out great! They're still moist and flavorful, but they have a bit more of a nutty flavor. I'll definitely be making them this way again.

These muffins were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I might have overmixed the batter. Next time, I'll be sure to mix it just until the ingredients are combined.

These zucchini muffins are a delicious and easy way to use up summer zucchini. They're moist and flavorful, with a crispy top and a tender crumb. I added a little bit of chopped bacon to mine, and they were even better.
