How To Make
Step 1: First wash and prep your zucchini. You will shred your zucchini with a grater so it is evenly shredded. Add some salt and let it drain off some of the excess liquid.
Step 2: Then in a bowl add all your ingredients and whip it up. Pour the batter into greased egg bite molds.
Step 3: Cook according to the printable recipe card below. When done remove and allow to sit for about 5-10 minutes to set a bit. Then serve up these bite-size zucchini bites.
What If I Don’t Have Bisquick
Don’t have Bisquick in your pantry? Here is a 4-ingredient Bisquick recipe to make your own Bisquick to use for this recipe.
The Bisquick needs to be used as it is more than just all purpose flour. It helps to mold and fluff up these bite size zucchini pies.
Appetizer Or Side Dish
Serve these up as an appetizer for the holidays, summer cookouts, or a game day treat. Or if you want, make it as a side dish to go next to dinner.
We love zucchini so I am always looking for new and fun ways to incorporate it into our daily diet in fun new ways.
Storing Zucchini Muffin Bites
For storing I tend to store these in the fridge. I find they last better that way. So once your bites are fully cooled then place in a sealable bag or even an airtight container. They will store for around five days in the fridge.
Then when you want some, eat it cold or toss in the microwave for a quick reheat. Or wrap some in foil tightly and toss in the oven for a slow and low reheat.
How to Serve These Zucchini Pies Up
- Dip in Ranch Dressing as an appetizer or side dish
- Pair with a soup or stew like a cornbread or slice of bread on the side
- Eat plain for a nice little treat or mid-day snack
- Pair next to your favorite bbq meat or even meatloaf to replace a bread side
Could You Add Meat To These
I have not tried to add some cooked meat to these. I would assume if you added crumbled pre-cooked sausage or hamburger it would work just the same. But, I can’t fully vouch as I have not tried to make them myself with meat.

*If you do not have bisquick, you can make a homemade version, check out a great recipe HERE
***To freeze it. Once cooked & cooled, wrap it tightly and you can freeze it for up to 3 months.
***This will nearly fill 2 egg bites molds. Mine filled them with the exception of 2 spots. If you would like to double the recipe you will have enough to fill 3-4 egg bite molds and just need to cook in 2 batches.
****It is not necessary to cover your egg molds with aluminum foil for cooking but you can if you prefer too.

I just made the zucchini pie. Omg so good. Now I’ll make these also.
I am so happy you loved the zucchini pie, that is one of our favorites too. 🙂
Can this be done in the oven with mini muffin tins? I don’t have egg molds..
Yes it sure can, you just mat need to add some additional cook time depending on how big your muffin tins are. 🙂
