   Set oven to 425F/220C. Grease 12-cup muffin pan, or
   spray coat, or use paper liners.
   
   BIG BOWL -- Sift the flours, baking powder and salt
   into the large bowl. SMALL BOWL -- whisk together egg,
   egg whites, milk, and oil until well blended. Add the
   small bowl's egg mixture to Big Bowl's flour. Stir in
   the zucchini, basil, garlic, cheese, and pine nuts.
   Fill each muffin cup full of batter. Bake until the
   muffins are golden brown and spring back when touched
   lightly, about 20 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 10
   minutes before removing from the pan, then serve at
   once.
   
   Pat's Note:  Add a pinch of ground coriander or nutmeg.
