I learn something new every time. I've never used or heard of courgette till now. They look like cucumbers but with a head and no seeds. Its a squash which is a type of plant like pumpkins. Like cucumbers, it doesn't have a very strong taste and is very watered out. 

48.carrot and courgette muffins
This muffin had soft light brown sugar in it unlike the last one. I also used sunflower oil instead of butter. Natural yogurt, vanilla extract and of course eggs. It reminded me of the carrot cake recipe with a few ingredients added or removed and different proportions.




I grated the carrots and courgette and stirred it in the batter with some chopped walnuts.

    1. Hey Bisola, thanks for dropping a comment. It tasted really nice actually. Sweet, not savoury and was a lot like carrot cake but with green bits. It's worth trying!
