In a bowl, combine 2 tbsp ground flax seeds with 2 tbsp water and let it sit for a few minutes to thicken.

Chop 1 onion and fry it in olive oil for 2-3 minutes until translucent.

Add 230g zucchini to the onions and fry for another 3-4 minutes.

Add 1 clove of garlic and 30g spinach to the mixture and continue frying for another 3-4 minutes.

Season with ½ tsp ground paprika, ½ tsp cumin, salt to taste, and freshly ground pepper.

Stir in 2 tbsp chickpea flour into the mixture.

If unsure about the muffin shape, grease the muffin tin with a little oil.

Pour the prepared mixture into the muffin tin and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.

Bake for 20-25 minutes at 180°C (356°F).
