Notes
Notes
- Serving Tip: Let the muffins cool slightly and enjoy them warm! They are perfect with a fresh salad or a smile on your face.
- Mastering the Cooking Secrets: Ensure to squeeze the zucchini well before adding it to keep the dough light and prevent it from becoming too moist. Crumble the feta carefully for even distribution.
- Make Your Recipe Unique: You can replace feta with creamy goat cheese or mild sheep’s cheese. Instead of paprika, chopped olives could offer an exciting flavor alternative.
- Smart Storage & Reheating: Store the muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator to preserve their texture. They can be stored for up to five days. For longer shelf life, freeze them individually wrapped in cling film and place in a freezer bag for up to three months.
- Reheating: Warm briefly in the oven at 180 degrees Celsius to restore their original crispiness, or heat briefly in the microwave.
- Chef’s Golden Tips: Use fresh ingredients for more aromatic muffins. Grease the muffin tin well or use paper liners for easy removal. Be careful not to overmix the batter to avoid tough muffins; stir only until just combined.
- Additional serving suggestions: Serve warm with yogurt. Add fresh herbs for extra flavor.
