Kia ora beautiful nanatech followers!
Okay, so two things. Baking doesn’t always have to be sweet, and baking doesn’t always mean You bake and Boys eat it.
A firm believer of both, (having baked with my little brother loads) this week it was my mission to make Amazing savoury muffins! And I was lucky enough to enjoy this with a boy too!
So! I highly recommend this recipe, with a few adjustments:
| ¾ cups grated cheese |
| 2 cups plain flour |
| 4 tsp baking powder |
| ¼ tsp salt |
| pinch cayenne pepper |
| 1 tsp mustard powder |
| 1 egg, beaten |
| 50g butter, melted |
| ½ cups milk |
| 1 zucchini |
| ½ pepper (red green yellow or mixture) |
| couple of mushrooms |
| couple of brocolli florets |
1) sift dry ingredients into bowl and stir to combine
2) add cheese and vegetables
3) stir in egg, butter and milk just to combine
4) spoon into greased muffins trays
5) bake 200°C for 15 mins or until golden
Improvements that the boy and I decided could be made:
Bake for longer (or make them smaller than normal muffins)
Add cheese on top near the end of the cooking to melt (mmmmm)
Add half an onion
Add 2 spring onions
Add sliced sundried tomato
Make sure you use Red Capsicum (cause its more colourful and sweeter!)
Add a cup of corn
Add your favourite spices 🙂
And of course, you can make them dairy and gluten free really easily by buying gluten free flour and using marge instead of butter and soy milk instead of milk.
Mmmmm, perfect for a winter time treat!
Definitely worth trying this one!
