Preheat the oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and lightly grease a mini muffin tin with olive oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, grated zucchini, and grated carrot.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Add the egg mixture to the bowl with the vegetables and cheese. Stir until evenly mixed.
Sift the flour and baking powder over the wet mixture, then gently fold together until just combined. Do not overmix.
Spoon the mixture evenly into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling each cavity about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18β20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the Tike Treats to cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the tin.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Perfect as a snack or lunchbox addition!
