zucchini muffins recipe /with walnuts
I got to see this new shop of farm fresh ooty vegetables here in our farmers market opened newly because for years only country vegetables were available in our farmers market.I was excited to see refreshing bunches of carrot,beetroot,celery,leeks and zucchini.I got yellow and green zucchin’s along with other veggies and returned home thinking of making some soup or bread with zucchini.Just ended up making muffins( zucchini muffins recipe )out of yellow zucchini it came out so well that it all got finished at one go.Again I made the same recipe with the green zucchini and this time was able to click some photos for my blog!its a filling snack or even can be taken as a breakfast item.I was going through lots of zucchini muffin recipes and finally was satisfied by vahchefs recipe and did the same with slight variations!it was a total satisfying one.You can use oil alone instead of using in combination in that case take 1/4 cup oil alone .You can use 3/4 cup wheat flour and 1/4 cup maida combinations.
