Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with vegetable oil or non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, grated carrots, grated sweet potatoes, and diced onion. Mix well to evenly distribute the vegetables.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth. Add the vegetable oil, salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix until fully combined.
Pour the egg mixture into the bowl of vegetables and stir until the vegetables are well coated.
Gradually add the matzo meal to the vegetable mixture, stirring as you go. The mixture should become cohesive but not dry.
Divide the mixture evenly among the 12 cups of the prepared muffin tin, pressing down gently to compact the mixture into each cup.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the kugels are firm to the touch.
Allow the kugels to cool in the muffin tin for 5-10 minutes before carefully removing them. Use a small spatula or knife to loosen the edges if needed.
Serve warm or at room temperature. These kugels can be made ahead and reheated in the oven before serving.
