Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted, plus extra for greasing
- 75 g/2½ oz plain flour
- 75 g/2½ oz instant polenta or fine cornmeal
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 150 ml/5 fl oz plain yogurt
- 3 tablespoons whole milk
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 75 g/2½ oz no-added sugar or salt canned sweetcorn, drained
- 60 g/2¼ oz cheddar cheese, grated
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas Mark 6. Grease a 12-hole mini muffin tin or line the tin with mini muffin cases
- Mix the flour with the polenta + baking powder in a large mixing bowl and make a well in the middle
- Mix the yogurt, milk and egg in a jug, stir in the 3 tablespoons of melted butter until combined, then pour the mixture into the bowl containing the flour. Add the sweetcorn and cheese and gently mix with a wooden spoon until everything is combined – don’t overmix the batter or the muffins will be dense
- Spoon the muffin batter into the tin or cases + bake for 15–20 minutes until risen. Test one muffin with a skewer to make sure it is cooked all the way through. Leave the muffins in the tin for a couple of minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool
- To serve, cut a warm or cold muffin into wedges for little ones and serve with slices of hard-boiled egg and tomato. Store the muffins in a lined airtight container for up to 4 days
