- Makes 9
Ingredients
- 200g self-raising flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
- ½ tsp cumin seeds
- 1 large egg
- 150ml buttermilk
- 5 tbsp sunflower oil
- 1 small courgette (about 140g/5oz) grated and squeezed to remove any liquid
- 100g feta, crumbled
Method
- STEP 1
Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and line 9 holes of a muffin tray with paper cases. In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, cumin and 1/4 tsp salt.
- STEP 2
In a jug, whisk together the egg, buttermilk and oil. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry, and add the courgette and half the feta. Stir to just combine, but don’t overmix.
- STEP 3
Divide the mixture between the muffin cases, and top with the remaining feta. Bake for 18-20 mins until golden brown. A skewer inserted to the centre of a muffin should come out clean and dry when the muffins are cooked. Cool on a wire rack. Will keep for 2 days in an airtight container.
