Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and oil a 12-hole muffin tin. Whisk the oil, egg and buttermilk. In a mixing bowl, mix the flour, 1 tsp salt and mustard powder, then stir in the cheddar, spring onions, chives and half the Parmesan.

  • step 2

    Use a large spoon to gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry – don’t overmix, just lightly combine. With the final few folds, mix in the soft cheese cubes. Spoon the mixture between the holes in the tin (they will be quite full), scatter with the remaining Parmesan and bake for 25 mins.

question

Can you freeze them?

Hi, thanks for your question. These should freeze well. Wrap them well or put inside a freezer bag or container. Defrost thoroughly before eating. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.

My first attempt at baking and have made them 3 times now, I used cream cheese on my first try but then looking at comments I used feta instead the 2nd and 3rd time and much preferred it, also added salt and pepper and quite a lot of chives. Lovley straight from the oven but as others have said not…

When you used cream cheese how did you store them? Thanks

question

Do you have to use sunflower oil? Or can you use a different type of oil?

Hi Lizzie,

Any unflavoured oil would work. Sunflower, vegetable, groundnut, light rapeseed would all be fine. You could use olive oil but it would flavour the muffins.

Thanks

Good but better with salt and pepper added to the dry ingredients.
