CHEESY GARLIC, HERB, PAPRIKA & TOMATO MUFFINS
This muffin recipe is very simple, and produces a heap of tasty muffins that can be served either hot or cold. I prefer them hot, 5-10mins after they are pulled from the oven. They are perfect as a snack, lunch, brunch, afternoon tea, etc., and also particularly good for picnics (e.g. used as a substitute for bread, served alongside salads and cold meats). This recipe has by and large been taken from Alison Holst's cookbook "Meals Without Meat," however I have tweaked it here and there to improve the flavour :) Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 210°C.
- Put the grated cheese, flour, salt, sugar, cayenne pepper, paprika, smoked paprika, garlic granules, and herbs into a large bowl.
- Mix lightly with your fingertips to combine. Make a well in the center.
- In another container, beat the egg and milk until evenly combined.
- Pour all the liquid onto the dry ingredients.
- Fold the two mixtures together, drawing in all the flour from the sides of the bowl until all ingredients are incorporated. Try not to overmix.
- Grease your deep muffin pan well.
- Spoon mixture off a tablespoon, helping it off with another spoon, into the pan. Fill each hole with as much as is needed to use up all of the batter.
- Place a slice of tomato on top of each muffin. Lightly brush each slice with a little melted butter or oil.
- Sprinkle with additional salt, cheese or paprika if desired.
- Bake at 210C for about 12 minutes, or until tomato slices are cooked (they'll look a bit shrivelled), muffins spring back when pressed, and muffins look golden brown.
- Remove from oven and set aside to cool for 5-10 minutes before removing from pan.
- To easily remove from pan, slide a butterknife around the sides of each muffin, and then lift. Tip: If muffins are stuck, put a plate or rack on top of muffin tray and flip tray over. Smooth a wet teatowel or sponge over the base of each muffin cavity for 1 or so minutes, then give the tray a light shake. Keep spongeing and lightly shaking until all muffins have come out. This method should release your muffins from their tray without breaking.
- Serve!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Spray 12 standard-size muffin cup pan with cooking spray.
- Add dry ingredients to large bowl and stir to blend well.
- Mix buttermilk, eggs, sour cream and oil in medium bowl to blend.
- Add herbs and lemon peel.
- Stir buttermilk mixture into flour mixture, do not over mix.

- Bake muffins 15 minutes, brush tops again with butter.
- Continue baking until golden on top about 12 minutes longer.
- Turn muffins out onto cake rack.
- Serve warm with cream cheese.
Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe tomatoes for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh tomatoes, you can use canned diced tomatoes, but be sure to drain them well before using.
- Chop the tomatoes into small pieces so that they distribute evenly throughout the muffins.
- Use a variety of herbs to flavor the muffins. Some good options include basil, oregano, thyme, and rosemary.
- Use grated Parmesan cheese for a cheesy flavor and texture. You can also use shredded mozzarella cheese or feta cheese.
- Be sure to grease the muffin tins before filling them with batter. This will help the muffins to come out of the tins easily.
- If you are using a muffin pan with nonstick coating, you may not need to grease the tins.
- Fill the muffin tins about 2/3 full. If you fill them too full, the muffins will overflow.
- Bake the muffins at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Conclusion:
Tomato herb muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. They are packed with flavor from the fresh tomatoes, herbs, and cheese. These muffins are also a good source of vitamins and minerals. Serve them warm or at room temperature. You can also freeze the muffins for later use.
