Easy savoury muffins

These easy muffins make a great snack.

Savoury muffins make a great snack to fill the pangs of hunger between meals and these little beauties are spot on with the flavour. Not only that, they’re super easy to make with everything being combined into one bowl, mixed and then poured into the muffin tray to bake. Once they’ve cooled down, keep them stored in an airtight container in a cool place for up to a week. You can zap them in the microwave and top with a little butter before eating if you prefer them warm. Enjoy!
