Savory Muffins I had tasted savory muffins in
2005 when I was visiting New Zealand. I found them to be not only tasty but
also intriguing. By then I had not started baking muffins and also my baking
skills were basic. I thought once or twice how they could be made but then left
it at that.
Finally i have made them at home and here is the recipe for you.
Ingredients:
Cheese |
1/2 cup grated ( I used cheddar )
|
Egg | 1 |
Milk |
90 ml
|
olive oil | 40 ml |
flour | 1 cup |
baking powder | 1 1/2 tsp |
zucchini and carrot | 1 cup grated ( I used half a carrot and rest zucchini ) |
corn kernels | 4 tbsp , drained |
onion |
1 sliced
|
garlic |
1 1/2 tsp
crushed
|
olive oil |
1 tbsp
|
salt |
1/2 tsp
|
pepper |
1/2 tsp
ground
|
jalapeño |
6 slices finely chopped
|
Method :
- Grease and line a 12 hole muffin tray.
- Squeeze zucchini and carrot to remove all water.
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan and sauté onion and garlic till onion turns soft and pink. Switch off gas.
- Add squeezed zucchini and carrot mix to the hot pan and stir to mix well.
- Drain corn kernels and add to the above mix.
- When the pan cools completely add pepper, cheese and jalapeños .
- Sift flour, salt and baking pd. in a large bowl.whisk to mix well.
- Now lightly mix the cooled mixture of vegetables and cheese to the above flour mix.

- In a separate bowl lightly beat the egg. Now add oil and milk one after the other and beat just to mix everything well
- Pour this egg, oil and milk mix into flour mixture .
- Mix everything very lightly with a spatula. Take care not to over mix it.
- Spoon the mixture equally into the muffin tray and bake for 20 to 25 min.
- Mine didn't look golden enough so I grilled them for 5 min.
