Savoury Cheese Muffins

salted butter (unsalted + salt)

garlic (, crushed)

cheddar cheese ((Note 1))

plain flour (all purpose flour)

tsp baking powder

tsp baking soda / bi-carb soda ((Note 2))

milk (full

parsley ((Note 3))

Preheat oven to 180C/350F (standard) or 160C/320F (fan).

Place butter and garlic in a microwave proof bowl and melt in 30 second bursts. Mix.

Brush a 12 hole standard muffin tin generously with butter, being sure to slather with some garlic. Reserve some butter to brush tops.

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, 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 11 holes in muffin in (I use an ice cream scooper). Batter should be thick and fill muffin tin to top (if in ball shape due to scooper, leave as is). See video.

Bake for 22 - 25 minutes or until the muffins are golden and crusty and spring back when touched in the centre.

Remove onto cooling rack, brush with remaining butter (microwave again if needed) and cool slightly before getting stuck into them!

Loaded with bacon, spinach and cheese, these savory breakfast muffins are a healthy handheld breakfast to help get you out the door on busy mornings.

Savory Muffins

all-purpose flour

baking soda

black pepper

plain yogurt*

cheddar cheese, grated

bacon,

spinach, roughly chopped

chives,

Preheat the oven to 375°F and grease a muffin tin with butter or oil.

In a cast-iron skillet or frying pan on medium-high heat, add bacon and cook for 8-10 minutes or until crisp. Once cooked, transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain.

Remove any excess bacon grease from the pan, leaving just a touch, add the chopped spinach and cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Transfer the spinach to the plate with the cooked bacon and set aside.

In a medium bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and black pepper and stir until well incorporated.

In a separate large bowl, combine all of the wet ingredients; egg, milk, yogurt and olive oil and whisk to combine.

Transfer the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and whisk well until the batter is smooth and there are no lumps.

Add cooked bacon, spinach, cheddar cheese and chives and gently fold into the batter until well incorporated.

Divide all of the batter evenly across the muffins tin wells.

Transfer the muffin tin to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean and muffins are slightly golden on top.

Once baked, allow to cool slightly, run a knife around each muffin to loosen, then transfer them to a rack and allow to cool slightly.

The muffins can be served immediately, stored in the fridge for up to 7 days, or frozen for up to 3 months.

Made this yesterday...they are a nice change from sweet muffins and healthier.  Found mine a bit dry but might have been the yogurt  I used. Still very yummy
Love your recipes

I made these this morning. OMG they are so easy and good and very filling. I used Greek yoghurt and a bit of milk. It worked well.
The hardest part was waiting for them to cool down.  Thank you Stephanie

Thanks Stephanie, for the information about the frozen spinach. I forgot to rate it in my original comment so have now?

Hi Steph
I made these muffins last week and OMG they are delicious and a real hit!
Thanks
Juliette

These were really good! And the freeze well too!

I had to get rid of ingredients as we’re going on vacation soon. This recipe had the ingredients I needed to use up. I replaced cheddar with feta and I didn’t have yogurt but I had a Greek yogurt dip. I burned the bacon but it still tastes so good. Lol! So glad I found this recipe, thank you!

I don't have a sweet tooth but I love savoury, and these muffins hit the spot!!  They are some work because who has cooked bacon and grated cheese lying around... LoL?  But the flavour is amazing and worth every minute of effort.  Definitely a staple in our breakfast routine.  So glad I found this website.  I made 24 in order to freeze because I knew they'd be delicious and this recipe did not disappoint.
