Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil for greasing
- 240 g flour 2 cups
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 medium egg
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper freshly crushed
- 240 mls milk 1 cup
- 60 g butter ¼ cup, softened or 60 mls vegetable oil
- 1 broccoli full head broccoli chopped small or 1 ½ cups chopped small
- 200 g cheddar cheese 2 cups, grated
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C Fan/425°F. Grease the cups of a muffin tray with 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, or insert paper liners and set aside.
- In a small bowl blend 1 medium egg, 240 mls milk and 60 g butter till fully combined and set aside.
- In a medium bowl sift in 240 g flour and 3 teaspoons baking powder, add ½ teaspoon salt then mix in 1 broccoli chopped small, 200 g cheddar cheese and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
- Pour the egg mixture into the four and lightly mix everything together till the mixture is moistened but do not beat.
- Fill the muffin liners ¾ full with batter and bake for 5 minutes, then turn down the heat to 190°C/170°C Fan/375°F and bake for a further 13-15 minutes, till golden. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before removing. Best served warm
Notes
- Remove the egg and milk from the fridge around a half hour in advance so they are at room temperature for best results. Ingredients at room temperature will combine easier than when chilled.
- Mix the batter till it is just moistened. Do not beat or over mix the batter as this will make the muffins dense - the batter does not need to be perfectly combined.
- Fill the muffin liners with batter till they are three quarters full as the muffins will rise while baking.
- Store leftover muffins in a closed box and keep the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to a month. Bring to room temperature or warm before serving.
