Cheesy Courgette Savoury Muffins

Suitable from 6+ months with Baby Led Weaning (BLW) and great for fussy toddlers

These protein packed little muffins are full of healthy fats and goodness - they're also great for on the go and they're really easy for your baby to hold and feed themselves. Not to mention delicious!

Courgette (or Zucchini if you're in America) is such a versatile ingredient, especially when it comes to weaning and hidden veg recipes as you can simply grate it and slip it into just about anything!

These savoury muffins are an absolute hit in our house, not only with Eloise (8 months old at time of writing) but also my toddler Maxie. I may have indulged in one or two as well...

You can also freeze the cheesy courgette savoury muffins, so you have a breakfast, lunch or snack on demand!

You can of course use any cheese in this recipe, I just used cheddar as we always have some in the fridge and it's such a versatile ingredient when I'm cooking for the kids.
