Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Vegetable Savoury Muffins
  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and gather your ingredients and equipment.
  2. Grate the zucchini and carrot, then squeeze out the excess moisture using a dish towel.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the prepared zucchini and carrot with peas, corn, cheese, milk, yoghurt, olive oil, eggs, and parsley. Mix gently until just combined.
  4. Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Fold this mixture into the wet ingredients until slightly lumpy.
  5. Grease a muffin tray and spoon the batter into each hole, filling about three-quarters full.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, checking doneness with a toothpick; it should come out clean.
  7. Cool the muffins in the tray for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
