Preheat oven to 425. Oil one regular size muffin pan or place liners in slots. Makes about 11 muffins.
Mix together all of the dry ingredients.
In separate bowl mix the eggs, pressed garlic and Milk;. Pour into the dry ingredients and mix until well combined over medium low speed. Make sure to stop and scrape the sides with a spatula half way through to ensure it is evenly mixed.
With a spatula, fold in Shredded Zucchini and Shredded Cheese until just combined.
Using a scoop or a spoon; fill your oiled muffin pan until each slot is almost to the top. Mine reaches to about a half of a fingertip from the top of my pan.
Place into preheated oven and bake for 5 minutes.
While leaving the muffins in closed oven; reduce temp to 350 and bake for an additional 15-18 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Best Served warm.
