  • 2-3 Cloves of Garlic (Chopped)
  • 1/2 Cup of Ezekiel Bread crumbs
  • Dash of sea salt
  • Cracked Pepper (Optional)

How to make it:
  1. With skin left on Zucchini and ends cut, grate it on the large hold side of the grater.
  2. Combine everything together in a large bowl and mix/fold together.
  3. Coat cupcake tray with olive Oil.
  4. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
