  3. Place the dry ingredients into a mixing bowl and stir to combine.

  5. Make a well in the centre of the dry mix, add the wet mix and stir to combine.

Chefs Tip

Make these muffins your own, swap the ‘toppings’ (salami, sweetcorn, olives, green pepper) for your favourites. Why not try ham, pineapple, black olives and sliced mushroom? These muffins freeze well, and are great for packed lunches and picnics.
