- 1.33 cups chickpea flour (sifted, if lumpy)
- 2.5 teaspoons baking powder (certified GF, as needed)
- Optional: 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 8 ounces grated unpeeled zucchini (about 2 cups total)
- 1/2 cup water (more, if batter seems dry)
1. Preheat oven to 350F (180C). Line 9 cups of a standard size muffin pan with paper or foil liners. (Optional: spritz the interior of the liners with cooking spray to prevent sticking--see note).
2. In a large bowl, whisk the chickpea flour and baking powder until blended. Whisk in salt, if using.
3. Add the zucchini and water to the chickpea flour mixture, stirring until well-blended.Divide batter evenly between the 9 prepared muffin cups
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 14 to 17 minutes until tops are firm to the touch, and a toothpick inserted near the center of a muffin comes out with only moist crumbs attached.
5. Cool the muffins, in the muffin tin, for 5 minutes. Remove the muffins from the tin and cool completely on a cooling rack.
Storage: Store the cooled muffins in an airtight container at cool room temperature for 2 days, the refrigerator for 1 week, or the freezer for up to 6 months.
Do not Drain Zuccini: Do not drain the zucchini after grating. The moisture is needed for the muffins.
Chickpea flour options: These muffins are made to work with chickpea flour. I do not recommend using any substitutes.
