  • Additional Information

    My advice: Grate zucchini and squeeze out as much water as possible. Excess water should be well absorbed. You can also add some herbs or spices to the batter.

    • I just made these and followed the recipe exactly. They are really tiny and the mixture is too wet. They have completely stuck to the muffin cases and don't taste cooked! I'm thinking quite bit more flour is needed...
