Thermomix Super Cheesy Vegan Zucchini and Basil Muffins Recipe

So so soooooo cheesy, you won’t believe they are dairy free! And they are super moist, as all the best savoury muffins are. Pack for lunch boxes, picnics or snacks on the go and you’ll be one happy camper. We’ve used our naturally non-stick silicone dariole moulds, but you can also use a muffin tin, just be sure to grease first.
