- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 Fahrenheit).
- Sift the flour and add it to a large bowl together with the baking powder and bicab of soda.

- Mix the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients, then add the grated cheese, carrots and zucchini.
- Mix well to combine all the ingredients.

Notes
- Click on the US Customary link to see the measurements displayed in cups and ounces.
- The servings can be adjusted by clicking the number next to Servings.
- Make sure there is a good balance between the dry ingredients and the wet ingredients. If there isn't enough liquid, the muffins will be dry.
- Do not overmix the batter, use a spatula to gently bring all the ingredients together, overmixing causes the muffins to be tough.
- If the carrots and courgettes are not squeezed well, the batter will be too watery, and the muffins will be too soggy to raise.
