I was experimenting the other day and decided to make savory muffins for the kids because they seem to bounce off the walls with the chocolate chip ones! Also my son prefers savory stuff so I thought I’d try these out. Quite simple to make and feel free to add extra bacon bits!

You will need:

2 cups self raising flour
1 cup milk
¼ cup vegetable oil
100gm mature cheddar cheese, grated
4 rashers bacon, chopped
1 egg
Some chopped parsley

Method:

Cook the bacon bits in a pan until crisp. In the interim, mix all the other ingredients in a bowl. Add the bacon and mix well. Spoon the mixture into a 12 cup prepared muffin pan (I actually lined mine with cupcake cases to make life simpler) and bake in the oven at 180°C for 20-15 minutes.

Additional Notes:

I found that I could have added extra cheese and you can never ever go wrong with extra bacon bits. In the second batch I ground some black pepper into the batter and those turned out quite well too. Let me know how you fare with your attempt!

Enjoy!
🙂
