Directions
Savory Basil Zucchini Muffins, I found this recipe on another website today, and everyone here liked them so much that I figured I should post it for easy access This is originally from Gourmet Magazine, July 1990 The recipe calls for the muffins to be sliced in half and served with butter and sliced radish, as a tea sandwich However, they are tasty with or without radish, so I figured I’d just post it as a muffin recipe and not strictly a tea sandwich My boyfriend and I ate the sandwiches with some homemade chai tonight, and felt very British Of course, it would have been more British to eat them at 5PM and not 10, but we silly Americans can never get those things right Supposedly using mini-muffin tins yields a better tea sandwich, but used a regular muffin tin and was very satisfied with the result , These were good! Really different I could see using these for a sandwich, but they were also really good warm with a little butter melted on them , I did not have eggs so used a bit more buttermilk They came out great, very tender I liked them warm from the oven with a slice of good cheese I tomato soup also sounds good for me Thank you for sharing
