Savoury Red Leicester and Spinach Muffins

Happy Friday ya'll!

For readers who like a little spice, here's a little muffin with a big (cayenne) bite, this little recipe is slightly modified from the Hummingbird Bakery's original. 

Ingredients:

360g plain flour

2 1/2tsp baking powder

1tsp cayenne pepper

30g butter (room temp)

1 egg

220ml milk

250g red leicester cheese

1 medium sized red onion

100g spinach

Method:

Sift the flour, baking powder and cayenne pepper together in a large bowl. Next, stir in the butter - the mixture will become slightly pebbly. Then add the egg, milk, and cheese. Stir the batter until it is well mixed. It will have a very sticky/springy consistency.

With a wooden spoon, fold in the chopped red onions. Add the spinach and fold some more until everything is evenly dispersed.

Spoon the mixture evenly into a well floured (or paper case lined) muffin tray.

Pop into the oven at 170C for approximately 35 minutes.

Serve warm or cooled.

Enjoy!
