Sophie's Chili Chorizo Cheese muffins
I absolutely loved these muffins. Unfortunately they didn't last long enough for anyone other than my boyfriend to try them! (and he only got one!) :-[
Ingredients
-
275 grams plain flour
-
1 tsp sugar
-
125 grams mature cheddar, grated
-
100 grams finely chopped chorizo
-
1 chili flakes to taste
-
2 eggs
-
200 ml semi skimmed milk
-
2 tbsp oil
-
1 tsp baking powder
Cooking Instructions
-
1
Pre heat oven to gas mark 5, 190°C (170°C in a fan assisted oven)
-
2
Mix your eggs, milk and oil in a bowl.
-
3
In a separate bowl, mix the rest of your ingredients. I prefer to briefly cook the chorizo in a frying pan first and allow to cool, but as it is pre-cooked, you can skip this step if you're pressed for time.
-
4
Pour your wet ingredients onto your dry ones and mix until just combined.
-
5
Pour your mix into muffin cases - I prefer to use silicone ones, so I can pop them straight out, but paper ones work just as well. If desired, add a small amount of grated cheese to the top.
-
6
Bake for approximately 20 minutes, or until a skewer/toothpick comes out clean. (be careful checking in this way, as the cheese can stick to the skewer and look like uncooked mix).
-
7
Allow to cool slightly for a great accompaniment to a meal, or cool completely for a scrummy picnic or lunch box snack!
