Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C and prepare a 3-hole muffin tin with liners.
2. Grate the zucchini finely and squeeze them firmly with a cloth to remove all excess water.
3. In a bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and black pepper until frothy.
4. Stir in the olive oil and the grated Grana Padano cheese.
5. Fold in the spelt flour and the baking powder until the batter is smooth.
6. Dice the ham finely and add it to the mixture along with the squeezed zucchini.
7. Pour the batter into the muffin tins and bake for 20 minutes until golden and firm.
8. Let them rest for 5 minutes before removing from the mold.

Tips

• The secret to a fluffy texture is squeezing the zucchini very dry before adding them.
• Make a double batch: these stay fresh for 3 days in an airtight container and are great cold.
