Savoury Cheese Muffins
|
These cheesy bread rolls can be baked flat or in these muffin forms for more convenient eating. You can even use the mixture in a metal bread form to bake a bread which slices nicely for sandwiches if you prefer.
Surprisingly filling when served with cheese and ham or your favourite sandwich topping, they are a delightful lunchtime or snack alternative. Eat them whole, or... Just slice in half and eat as open sandwiches. Instructions1)Warm the oven to 180C.
2) Whisk the eggs first, for a fluffier batter. 3) Add all the remaining ingredients; whisk till smooth. 4) Leave for 20 minutes to allow the chia seeds and psyllium husks to absorb water and swell. 5) Bake as preferred: - As a loaf, a small breadform; 180C for 30 minutes. - As flatter hamburger-style rolls on a silicon pad (makes ten) at 200C for 15 to 20 minutes. - In a muffin form (as illustrated) 20 minutes at 200C |
