Description

These Crispy Parmesan Zucchini Potato Muffins are a delicious and healthy snack or side dish, combining grated zucchini and potatoes with savory Parmesan cheese and herbs, baked to golden perfection in muffin tins.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 medium zucchinis, grated
  • 2 medium potatoes, grated
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for greasing muffin tin)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil.
  2. Grate the zucchini and potatoes, then squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.
  3. In a large bowl, mix the grated zucchini and potatoes with Parmesan cheese, flour, eggs, garlic, onion powder, salt, pepper, and parsley until well combined.
  4. Spoon the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, pressing down gently to pack.
  5. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and crispy.
  6. Let cool slightly before removing from the muffin tin. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • You can add chopped scallions or chives for extra flavor.
  • Use a food processor to speed up the grating process.
  • These muffins freeze well; reheat in the oven for best texture.
