Preparation Time

Serves

Ingredients

  • 225g self-raising flour

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 1 tbsp snipped chives

  • 5 spring onions, finely sliced

  • 70g mature Cheddar cheese

  • 40g Parmesan, grated

  • 30g feta cheese, crumbled

  • 1 large egg

  • 200ml buttermilk

  • 75ml sunflower oil

  • 10 cherry tomatoes, roughly chopped

  • Freshly ground black pepper

  1. Preheat the oven to 160°C/325°F/Gas 3 and line a 12-hole muffin tray with paper cases.

  2. Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl and add the chives, spring onion and cheeses in a bowl. Season with a little pepper.

  3. Mix the egg, buttermilk and oil together in a jug.

  4. Add the wet ingredients to the bowl of dry ingredients and gently mix.

  5. Divide the muffin mixture evenly between the paper cases, top with the chopped tomatoes and bake for 25–30 minutes until well risen and lightly golden.
