Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a mini muffin tray or line with mini muffin paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the self-raising flour and baking powder. Stir in the sugar, basil, chives, Parmesan, feta, and cheddar cheeses until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, olive oil, and the lightly beaten egg.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour the wet ingredients into the well. Gently fold the mixture using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared mini muffin tray, filling each mold about two-thirds full.
Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tray for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the Three Cheese Mini Muffins warm or at room temperature. They make a perfect snack or appetizer for any occasion.
Tips:
- Ensure that all your ingredients are at room temperature before mixing for a smoother batter and better rise.
- Finely chop the basil leaves and chives to evenly distribute their flavors throughout the muffins.
- Do not over-mix the batter; this can make the muffins tough. Mix until just combined.
- Use a mini muffin tin and fill each cup about 2/3 full to allow space for the muffins to rise.
- You can use paper liners or grease the muffin tin well to prevent sticking.
- Feel free to experiment with other herbs or additional cheese varieties to suit your taste.
