    Ingredients

    • For the muffins:
    • 4 cups all purpose flour, sifted
    • 8 tsp baking powder
    • 1/2 tsp salt
    • 1/2 tsp paprika
    • 1/2 tsp mustard powder
    • 1/4 tsp crushed dried chillies
    • 1 tsp mixed dried parsley, oregano and thyme
    • 2 eggs, whisked
    • 1 cup milk, or sour milk, or buttermilk
    • 2/3 cup cooking oil
    • For the filling:
    • Grated cheeses of your choice, about 1/2 cup, or more
    • 1-2 slices of bacon, chopped
    • 1/2 red + 1/2 green capsicum/ sweet peppers
    • A few mushrooms, sliced
    • 1 can of sweetcorn
    • 1/2 onion, sliced
    • 1 clove of garlick, if desired( I keep my peeled garlick in a bottle of oil, and use the oil to fry)

    Directions

    1. Pre-heat the oven to 180*C/350*F
    2. Sift the dry ingredients together in a big mixing bowl, make a well in the middle
    3. Mix the wet ingredients, set aside
    4. Fry the onion, then add the sweet peppers, then the mushrooms, don't overcook, cool
    5. Add the cheese to the flour, use a long tooth fork
    6. Add the veggies to the sifted flour mixture, again using the fork
    7. Add the contents of the canned sweetcorn, stir
    8. Make another well
    9. Add the cooled veggies, mix lightly with the fork
    10. Now add the wet stuff into the well, mix lightly , don't overmix
    11. Refridgerate while preparing muffin pans, lined with paper cups
    12. Using two table spoons, generously fill the paper cups almost to the tops. When for a big occasion, use smaller paper cups, or youcould even fill a piping bag, and make little swirls to serve as titbits as an entree.
    13. Bake in the oven for approximately 15 minutes, depending on size
    14. Alternative: keep the muffin mix separately, spoon an amount of batter into the paper cups, then add a generous amount of filling, topping it up with the rest of the batter, though that is not going to
    15. feed as many servings. This can serve as a nice canape at any kind of occasion
