1/4 red capsicum (bell pepper), finely diced (optional)

1 clove garlic, minced
👩‍🍳 Instructions
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).

Grate the zucchini and place it in a bowl (no squeezing—this keeps muffins moist).

Spoon the mixture evenly into 9 muffin cups.
Bake
Bake for 20–25 minutes or until golden on top and set in the center.
