It\u2019s zucchini season!! No doubt you’ve noticed, they are everywhere in great numbers: at the markets, in our gardens and of course at the Co-op.
But fear not, zucchini are such a versatile veggie it\u2019ll be hard to get sick of them.
This year, in the quest for new ways of using up our zucchini glut, I stumbled across this recipe and \u2026oh my!! It\u2019s delicious, lunch-box friendly, fussy-kid approved, dairy-free and even freezes well. And most importantly, it is quick and easy to make and you can get all the ingredients from the Co-op!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You will need:
1 cup of shredded zucchini
1\/2 cup of rapadura sugar (or coconut sugar)
1\/2 cup of raw sugar
1\/3 cup of sunflower oil
2 eggs
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1 cup of plain flour (I used half white and half wholemeal!)
1\/2 teaspoon each of baking soda AND baking powder
1\/2 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of cinnamon (I put a little more as our family loves cinnamon!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To make them, just mix everything together well in a bowl, and then spoon the mixture into a muffin tray! Voila! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Place in the oven at 180C until done, about 20 min (keep an eye on them as it\u2019ll depend on your oven).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Eat warm, cold or freeze for later. Yum!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
NB –<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I like to avoid disposable muffin liners and use silicone moulds, or you can buy silicon muffin liners, or oil your moulds really well. I think you could even make this all in one piece as a cake. by Illaria Catizone It\u2019s zucchini season!!
