Sundried Tomato Parmesan Muffins With A Twist Recipes

SUNDRIED TOMATO & PARMESAN MUFFINS (WITH A TWIST)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to moderately hot (190° Celsius or 375° Fahrenheit. Fan forced ovens use 160° Celsius or 340° Fahrenheit).
• Sift dry ingredients into a large bowl. Stir through Parmesan, tomatoes, onions and garlic.
• Whisk together the cream cheese and egg (if using an electric mixer you must use the whisk attachment for this, the paddle won't do the job, start on slow). Gradually whisk in milk and oil until smooth (if using an electric mixer take the speed up to medium to incorporate the milk and oil). Gradually add in dry ingredients and mix until just combined (electric mixers can use a paddle for this part).
• Spoon into 12 muffin pans (or 6 Texas muffin pans). Sprinkle with extra Parmesan and bake for 20 - 25 minutes or until cooked through (a skewer will come out clean when inserted into one of the muffins) and are golden on top.
• Allow to cool in pan for 5 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack. Serve warm or cold.

MMMM MUFFINS - CHEESE, SPINACH AND SUN-DRIED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Spray a 12 muffin tray with cooking oil or grease with butter (ensure thoroughly coated). Can use paper cases to line instead of spray or butter if you wish.
• Combine the flour, baking powder and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly with a balloon whisk.
• In another mixing bowl or a large jug - whisk the eggs, milk and oil together. Stir through the chopped spinach and the sliced sun-dried tomatoes. Gentley stir in the crumbled fetta and the finely grated asiago (or parmesan) cheeses.

• Bake approx 15 - 25 minutes, until well risen and golden. Allow the muffins to cool in the pans for 5 minutes. Serve warm or reheat later.
