Healthy Veggie muffins for breakfast

Radhika of Tickling palates has once again come up with a bright idea 'I love baking'.I wanted to make some muffins but the sweet somethings are getting a bit too much these days, so while i was thinking of what to bake, i started looking online for savoury muffins.I'm a little dreaded with the yeast monster these days since it ditched me so no breads!

I whipped these muffins in about 10 minutes and they were on the way to the oven.They are eggless, healthy and as easy as a cupcake!You have to believe me this is one super duper breakfast in a cup!These are eggless so it was all the more easier to mix up and bake too!I tried a small quantity and didn't bother to use my muffin tray, i just greased some metal bowls and baked them.
