Savoury Muffins

Another great idea for a savoury breakfast… especially when you’re on-the-go! These are packed full of veg which add a crunch and the protein in the eggs make you stay fuller for longer.

They are great hot or cold!

Ingredients:

• 6 Eggs
• 1/4 Cup oil
• 1 Cup buckwheat flour
• 1 Large zucchini (grated)
• 2 Large carrots (grated)
• 1 Small tin of sweetcorn (drained)
• 2 Cups of spinach (roughly chopped)
• Salt and pepper
• 1 tsp Baking powder
• 1 TBSP mild curry powder
• 1 TBSP dried herbs

Method:

1. Whisk all the eggs until light and fluffy.
2. Add the oil and continue beating.
3. Slowly add the flour until a smooth batter develops.
4. Add the spices and baking powder.
5. Spoon in all the veg and mix with a metal spoon until everything is evenly coated (leave the spinach until last)
6. Spoon into muffin tins and bake until golden brown or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean.

To make the ideal portion for a breakfast, I used large muffin tins. This makes 6 muffins and I would have one with a cup of tea and a piece of fruit for a healthy breakfast.
