Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose or cake flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda/bicarbonate of soda
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ cup oil (See note 1)
1 ¾ cup buttermilk or plain yogurt (See note 2)
1 cup grated cheese (See note 3)
2 cups vegetables (chopped See note 4)

Steps:

  • Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda (bicarbonate of soda), salt and black pepper in a large bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the oil and buttermilk.
  • Pour the oil mixture into the flour mixture and mix to combine.
  • Add in the grated cheese and 2 cups of any chopped veggies or other ingredients you prefer. I used feta, olives, red jalapenos, and chives.
  • Grease the muffin tin WELL. Even if you are using a non-stick pan, it should be well greased. I use cooking spray or lots of butter to grease the muffin tin. If you are lining the pan with paper cups, then those cups need to be sprayed as well.
  • Divide the batter in the muffin tin, filling each up to ¾ full.
  • Bake in a preheated oven of 320ºF ( 160ºC ) for between 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and enjoy as is or with a spread of butter.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of cheeses: This will give your muffins a more complex flavor and texture. Cheddar, Parmesan, and Gruyère are all good choices.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full: This will prevent the muffins from overflowing.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely: This will help the muffins to hold their shape.

Whether you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast, a hearty snack, or a side dish for dinner, savory cheese muffins are a great option.
