And I&#8217;ve made a few variations of sweet zucchini bread and muffins, but for this recipe I wanted a savory zucchini muffin recipe that included cheese and a fair amount of zucchini. And I&#8217;m more of a cook than a baker, so it took me seven tries to get a recipe I was satisfied with! But the happy result of all that recipe testing was these Savory Zucchini Muffins (with Green Chiles and Cheese).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I&#8217;m glad I persisted until I had a winner because I loved these muffins eaten warm with a bit of butter! The savory muffins do use white whole wheat flour, so check the nutritional information to see if that makes this recipe too much of a carb splurge for you.

I grated it with my food processor, but a large hand grater will work too.<\/li>\n<li>My first few tries were way too wet, so some <a href=\"http:\/\/www.davidlebovitz.com\/\">good<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sophisticatedgourmet.com\/\">bakers<\/a> gave me the tip of putting the zucchini inside a dish towel and squeezing out all the liquid. I highly recommend doing that!&nbsp; You&#8217;ll be amazed at how much water comes out.<\/li>\n<li>Drain a small can of whole green chiles, then stack them up and chop into very small pieces. Then take a paper towel and cover the diced chiles, pressing down so the towel absorbs even more of the juice. They should look fairly dry like this when you put them into the bowl. (When I used green chiles that come already diced, they were too wet.)<\/li>\n<li>In a medium-sized bowl, combine the grated zucchini or squash, diced green chiles, grated cheese, and finely grated Parmesan. Then beat together the buttermilk and eggs and mix it into these wet ingredients.<\/li>\n<li>In a small bowl, combine the <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2UF7tGN\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">White Whole Wheat Flour<\/a> (affiliate link), sweetener, sea salt, baking soda, and baking powder.<\/li>\n<li>Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until the flour is all incorporated into the batter.

I would start checking them a bit sooner than that in case your oven cooks hotter than mine. (They will be moist inside when they&#8217;re still hot.&nbsp; I was surprised they took so long to bake until I realized how many wet ingredients there were.)<\/li>\n<li>Let muffins cool about 15 minutes before eating them.&nbsp; They keep well in the fridge and reheat well in the microwave (only about 30 seconds.)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Make it as part of a Meal:<\/h2>\n<p>I think this savory zucchini muffin recipe would be great any time of day, and it would be great with any of these main dishes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/kalynskitchen.com\/chesters-low-carb-southwestern-egg-skillet\/\">Southwest Breakfast Skillet<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/kalynskitchen.com\/turkey-cutlets-with-dijon-sauce\/\">Chicken Cutlets Recipe with Mustard Sauce<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/kalynskitchen.com\/2015\/03\/avocado-frittata-with-cotija-mozzarella.html\">Avocado Frittata with Cotija and Mozzarella Cheese<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/kalynskitchen.com\/recipe-for-creole-seasoned-and-pan\/\">Creole Pork Chops with Tomato-Pepper Relish<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/kalynskitchen.com\/my-idea-of-great-frittata-mushroom\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mushrooms and Spinach Egg Skillet<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-106978\" src=\"https:\/\/kalynskitchen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/1-650-savory-zucchini-muffins-green-chiles-kalynskitchen.jpg\" alt=\"Savory Zucchini Muffins with Green Chiles vertical image showing muffins in rows.\" width=\"650\" height=\"893\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kalynskitchen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/1-650-savory-zucchini-muffins-green-chiles-kalynskitchen.jpg 650w, https:\/\/kalynskitchen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/1-650-savory-zucchini-muffins-green-chiles-kalynskitchen-600x824.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Want more recipes using Zucchini?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>There&#8217;s a whole category for <a href=\"https:\/\/kalynskitchen.com\/tag\/zucchini\/\">Zucchini Recipes<\/a> on Kalyn&#8217;s Kitchen!<\/li>\n<li>Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/kalynskitchen.com\/twenty-zucchini-recipes-for-sneak-some\/\">50 Amazing Zucchini Recipes<\/a> to see most of my ideas with zucchini.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/kalynskitchen.com\/2016\/08\/top-ten-low-carb-zucchini-recipes.html\">The Top Ten Low-Carb Zucchini Recipes<\/a> will show you popular zucchini recipes that are low in carbs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"http:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"Recipe\",\"name\":\"Savory Zucchini Muffins (with Green Chiles and Cheese)\",\"author\":{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Kalyn Denny\"},\"datePublished\":\"2020-05-14\",\"recipeYield\":15,\"description\":\"These Savory Zucchini Muffins (with Green Chiles and Cheese) are loaded with amazing savory flavors.

Muffins with flour may be too high in carbs for low-carb diets, although with all the zucchini and cheese these zucchini muffins have only 10 net carbs per muffin.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Find More Recipes Like This One:<\/b><br \/>\nUse <a href=\"https:\/\/kalynskitchen.com\/category\/recipes\/dessert\/\">Desserts and Baking<\/a>&nbsp;to find more recipes like this one!
