I came up with this savoury muffin recipe recently with the thought of something different for kiddies lunch boxes. They were really yummy straight from the oven.

Cheese ,Tomato and Chive Muffins
Makes 12.
In one bowl;
- 300g self raising flour
- 1 tsp bicarb of soda
- 1 tsp salt (optional)
- either; a pinch of cayenne pepper or of powdered mustard
In another bowl;
- 100g grated cheddar cheese (I think stronger is better)
- 50g cheese to sprinkle over the muffins before they bake
- 2 large eggs
- 200 ml milk
- 100 ml sunflower oil
- 1 tbsp snipped chives (fresh or dried)
- Cherry tomatoes, I put three slices onto each muffin
Add wet ingredients to dry and stir until combined. Place slices of tomato onto each and sprinkle a little cheese over. Fill the muffin cases almost to the top.
Bake at 200°c for approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
