Ingredienser
  

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 cup shredded zucchini, squeezed dry
  • 1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup marinara sauce, divided
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil, for greasing the muffin tin

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Heat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease 8 cups of a standard muffin tin with the olive oil.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, squeezed-dry zucchini, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, egg, 2 tablespoons of the marinara, Italian seasoning, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.
  • Divide the mixture among the 8 greased muffin cups. Press it in lightly, leaving the tops level rather than packing the mixture tightly.
  • Bake until the muffins are cooked through and reach 165°F in the center, about 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Spoon the remaining marinara over the muffins. Let them rest in the tin for 5 minutes, then loosen the edges and lift them out to serve.

Squeezing excess moisture from the zucchini helps the muffins hold together, so use a clean kitchen towel or paper towels before measuring it. For a saucier finish, warm the reserved marinara and spoon a little more over each muffin at the table.
