Instructions
Preheat oven to 175 C/350 F
Mix all dry ingredients together in a medium bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well until combined.
Spoon mixture into a prepared muffin tray. This makes approximately 14 medium sized muffins. Smooth the top of the muffins slightly.
Bake for between 15-18 minutes or until cooked on the inside, taking care not to overcook.
Allow to cool in the muffin pan.
Eat fresh or freeze for convenience.
*To make yoghurt water, mix 1 tablespoon of Greek Yoghurt with water.
Serving Suggestions-
Serve warm with butter.
Eat hot straight from the oven or eat cold.
Variations
Add 1 teaspoon of paprika and/or ½ teaspoon of garlic powder for a different flavor.
1/2 teaspoon of mustard powder would compliment these especially if you omit the chives.
Omit chives and add jalapenos for a delicious alternative.
Vary the amount of cheese in these to taste. The muffins displayed are cheesier so use the full 200 gms of cheese.
Notes
Serve warm with butter. Eat hot straight from the oven or enjoy cold, smeared with butter.
