Apple, cheddar and oat muffins

Apple, cheddar, and oat muffins are a delightful combination of sweet and savory flavors. These muffins make for a perfect breakfast option, snack, or even a light dessert. With the sweetness of apples and honey, paired with the savory cheddar cheese and wholesome oats, you're in for a delicious and nutritious treat.

Ingredients:

2 cups self-raising flour
300g
3/4 cup sugar
150g
1/3 cup oats
30g
1/3 cup cheddar cheese
33g
1 dash salt
1g
1/2 cup olive oil
120g
3/4 cup milk (1% fat)
180g
2 eggs
100g
1 apple
160g
2 tsp honey
6g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
2. Prepare Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of self-raising flour, 3/4 cup of sugar, 1/3 cup of oats, 1/3 cup of grated cheddar cheese, and a dash of salt. Mix until well combined.
3. Prepare Wet Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of olive oil, 3/4 cup of milk, and 2 eggs until the mixture is smooth.
4. Combine Ingredients:
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; be careful not to over-mix.
5. Incorporate Apple and Honey:
- Fold the finely chopped apple and 2 teaspoons of honey into the batter until evenly distributed.
6. Fill the Muffin Tin:
- Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
7. Bake:
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
8. Cool:
- Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips:

- Grate the apple instead of chopping it for a more even distribution throughout the muffins.

- If you prefer your muffins sweeter, you can increase the amount of honey or sugar.

- Use a cheese with a strong flavor, like sharp cheddar, to ensure the cheesy taste stands out.

- Don't over-mix the batter. Mixing until just combined ensures your muffins will be tender and fluffy.

- Let the muffins cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps them firm up and makes them easier to handle.

In just a few simple steps, you can create these irresistible apple, cheddar, and oat muffins. They are perfect for any occasion and can be enjoyed by both kids and adults alike. With this recipe, you have a chance to bring a little more comfort and flavor into your kitchen. Happy baking!
