MEDITERRANEAN SAVOURY MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F (160°C/320°F fan).
• Brush a 12 hole standard muffin tin generously with butter
• Whisk Dry ingredients in a bowl.
• Whisk Wet ingredients in a separate bowl.
• Pour Wet into the Dry ingredients bowl. Mix 8 times.
• Add cheese, feta, sun dried tomato, capsicum, olives and green onion. Mix as few times as possible just to incorporate remaining bits of flour - no more than 7 big stirs (secret to soft muffs).
• Divide between 12 holes in muffin in (I use an ice cream scooper). Batter should be thick and fill muffin tin slightly mounded (see video)
• Bake for 25 minutes or until the muffins are golden and crusty and spring back when touched in the centre.
• Cool for 10 minutes, then transfer to cooling rack. Serve warm for optimum experience!

HERBS AND CHEESE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400F.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, pepper, chili powder (if using), and sugar. Whisk thoroughly.
• Add the grated cheese and chopped parsley to the flour mixture and mix until all incorporated.
• Add the egg, vegetable oil, applesauce, and buttermilk (or kefir) and mix with a spatula just until no flour is visible. Do not overmix.
• Line medium sized muffin pan with muffin liners AND SPRAY WITH COOKING OIL (this is important!)Alternatively: You don't have to line with paper liners, you can just spray the muffin tin with cooking oil directly.
• Evenly divide the batter between 16 cups.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of a muffin comes out clean.
• If you are not using muffin liners, then run a butter knife around the muffins while they are still hot to loosen them from the pan.
