cheese muffin recipes

These easy spinach, bacon and cheddar muffins are perfect for snacks, lunchboxes or with soup for lunch. Dig in while they&#8217;re still warm. Why not split a warm muffin in two, butter and serve with a bowl of our easy roasted tomato soup?

Spinach, bacon and cheddar muffins

tbsp vegetable oil, plus extra for greasing

bacon

baby leaf spinach

plain flour

½ tsp coarse sea salt

tsp baking powder

½ tsp bicarbonate of soda

strong cheddar,

medium free-range eggs, beaten

unsalted butter, melted and left to cool

buttermilk

fresh chives, snipped

Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan?180°C/gas 6. Grease and line a 12-hole muffin tin with muffin cases (or see tip). Heat the oil in a pan and fry the bacon for 3-4 minutes until crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside on kitchen paper.

Meanwhile, wilt the spinach by putting it in a colander in the sink and pouring over boiling water from a kettle. Refresh under cold water, then use your hands to squeeze out as much liquid as you can. Transfer to a chopping board and chop finely.

Combine the flour, salt, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and most of the cheese in a large bowl. In a separate bowl or large jug, mix the beaten eggs, melted butter and buttermilk. Pour the egg mixture over the dry ingredients and stir, using a spatula, until just combined. Fold in the cooled bacon, chopped spinach and chives until everything is evenly distributed but the batter is still lumpy. Incorporating all the ingredients quickly without over-mixing will give light, fluffy muffins.

Spoon the batter equally among the cases, scatter over the remaining cheese, then bake for 18-20 minutes until golden and risen, or until a skewer inserted into the middle of a muffin comes out clean. Remove the muffins from the tin and place on a cooling rack until ready to serve.

These Cheddar Cheese Muffins are an easy-to-make treat that are sure to be a hit with everyone! These muffins are light and fluffy, with a delicious cheddar cheese flavor that can’t be beat. They’re perfect for a quick breakfast or snack, and they’re great for taking on the go!
