- You know, when I started The Bag Lady,
0:03
I'd make all kinda little miniature muffins to go in,
0:07
say maybe sometimes a salad
0:13
maybe a loaded twice baked potato for people to take home
0:19
So this is one of those recipes that is
0:25
This is zucchini cheese muffins
0:30
and we're gonna cook 'em in muffin tins
0:33
and it's easy, easy, easy.
0:36
I'm gonna go ahead and get this out of the way
0:40
and I'm gonna chop my chives and I don't need
0:43
but about a tablespoon.
0:45
You know, we just want that green
0:51
for some interest and a little flavor as well.
0:54
So I'm gonna move that to the side.
0:58
And I've got two cups of self-rising flour.
1:06
Two cups of self-rising flour, which means it's got
1:10
the leavening powder in it and your salt.
1:14
So we're just gonna add some cold cube butter
1:23
cut this butter into our flour till it's kinda like
1:28
green peas, you know about that size.
1:34
And it definitely needs to be cold butter,
1:40
which is gonna make your job a little bit harder.
1:42
But if you're gonna use
1:47
your workforce to get this done,
1:49
you want it right, you know?
1:51
Wanna do it like it's supposed to be.
1:54
'Cause you want your family to love it.
2:01
This arm is going to have more muscles in it tonight
2:05
when I put on my nightgown than this one.
2:08
It's gonna fall, but this one's strong.
2:12
'Cause that's a job, cutting that cold butter in.
2:17
Okay, so I'm gonna stir in my onion powder,
2:25
my black pepper, my red pepper,
2:51
Now I'm going to take off.
3:01
I'm gonna go ahead and stir in my chives
3:17
See how pretty that little bit of green
3:20
just adds some interest?
3:22
And you know what, I like that interest so much,
3:26
I think I might go with maybe two table spoons.
3:42
Now with these muffins you can use a muffin liner,
3:47
but I'm not, I would rather not do that.
3:52
So I've got to make sure that I spray
3:57
my muffin tins really, really good
4:01
using a spray that contains flour.
4:09
Oops. And my zucchini.
4:12
Now, before I started my recipe,
4:15
I needed a half a cup of grated zucchini,
4:20
and zucchini, it makes the best bread.
4:24
I've got a recipe for zucchini bread, you know, in a loaf,
4:28
it's out of this world, but this makes the best bread.
4:33
So I tossed it with some salt
4:36
to pull the water out of it.
4:43
doesn't look like very much zucchini does it?
4:46
So now I'm gonna put it in a paper towel
4:50
and I'm going to squeeze any excess water out of it
4:56
that might still be in it.
5:10
So now I'm just gonna shake the zucchini out
5:15
and hope no paper towel goes in it.
5:20
Just gonna have to be very careful
5:25
that no paper towel goes in it.
5:29
And I think we did it.
5:44
All right, now I'm gonna go ahead
5:45
and add my one cup of cheese.
5:55
And the last thing we're gonna add is our buttermilk,
6:00
and then we're not gonna wanna overwork it.
6:18
All right, so I'm gonna take my pan over to the sink
6:23
because y'all know how good my aim is
6:27
and I don't want this all over the kitchen.
6:29
So I'm just gonna walk over here to the sink
6:31
and spray this pan over here.
6:34
So the last thing that goes in is our buttermilk.
6:54
I don't know if there's anybody out there that
6:57
has ladies in for tea anymore.
7:05
gives you that much time anymore or not,
7:08
but this would be a nice little muffin
7:15
to serve somebody with a glass of ice tea or hot tea.
7:22
- [Eddie] Savannah Married Women's Bridge Club.
7:24
- Yep, Savannah's Married Women Bridge Club. Yes.
7:27
They still have time, don't they?
7:32
I think that's pretty good, don't you Eddie?
7:46
go spray my little dipper dipper.
8:09
And we wanna fill these about a fourth of a way up.
8:16
I probably should be using
8:25
We're ready to put this in the oven.
8:35
let me see, for about 10 minutes.
8:38
And then I'm gonna go in
8:39
and I'm gonna put the rest of the cheese.
8:44
We still got like a fourth of a cup of cheese
8:46
left over from the recipe.
8:48
You wanna take that Theresa so I won't get, (laughs).
8:53
All right, so if you'll set that on 10 minutes
8:56
And then I'm gonna go back in
8:57
and sprinkle it with a little bit more cheese.
9:01
- [Paula] All righty.
9:02
I'm putting just a little bit of...
9:05
- [Eddie] It's shocking.
9:06
- Don't it smell delicious?
9:10
Deliciosus, they're beautiful.
9:19
And this came to about a half a cup that we had
9:23
held aside to go on top of these.
9:31
So we're gonna put those back in just for a few more minutes
9:35
and we'll bake them until one of my toothpicks
9:43
comes out clean when I put it in the center.
9:47
Look how pretty these are.
9:50
And I stuck one over there on the plate
9:52
Eddie's fixing to take to Great Great Aunt Peggy.
10:14
And just a little butter.
10:15
'Cause there wasn't much butter in them.
10:37
I think you'll love it.
10:38
I love the crispy edge
10:40
that it gets in the muffin tins.
