This is a relatively quick and easy recipe for savoury muffins which are perfect to freeze and defrost when needed. These are a big hit with Luke who is a lover of all things cheesy. Amazing served warm, but are also perfect lunch box filers, these muffins will be a hit with young and old alike. These are a lovely savoury alternative to a sweet muffins. I often serve them with a teaspoon of tomato relish which always goes down well in our house. A great addition to our growing collection of family recipes.
