Well, I tried savory muffins for the first time today, and that was a bit of an ee opener. Excellent nosh, and they freeze well (or thaw well, as it were), or so I've been told. I made Sun-dried tomato olive muffins. Next week I'll try Parmesan herb muffins.

Recipe:

500 grams flour
1 tblsp baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
3 tblsp oil drained from tomatoes
2 tblsp sugar
5
dl milk
100 grams chopped, drained oil-packed sun dried tomatoes
100 grams chopped pitted olives

Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. In another bowl, lightly beat egg, Stir in tomato oil, sugar and milk. Pour over flour et. al. Mix together lightly, so that the flour is just absorbed. Mix in the tomatoes and olives, I put them in before the flour was completely absorbed which worked rather well. Put in a well greased muffin tray, it makes 12 medium muffins. B ake for 25 minutees on 375 degrees F.

If frozen wrapped in clingfilm, they will thaw in a lunch box in time for lunch if they are taken out around breakfast. Very good hot with butter and grated, tangy farmyard cheddar.

The small amount of sugar is just fantastic. I am going to try parmesan and herbs later this week. And pumpkin and sunflower seeds.
