Savoury Cheese Muffins

[dede]

Made these today and they are really good, although I forgot to add the extra cheese on top and I didn't have any black olives but still were really good. Next time I will add the extra cheese on top for that crunchy baked cheese flavor. Yum Yum.

these look great..... will have to try them.

BTW - the bags are available in Aldi

Dede, glad you liked them.

If the Toaster bags are at  Aldi,  I would certainly get some as they would be a lot cheaper than those that I got.  If I remember right ,  mine were $16 for 2.

Unfortunately we dont have Aldi here in tassie  . . Will have to look else where.

Thanks for the heads up on the muffin top trays,got a couple from woolies. Bigger than I expected so may not be saving any calories,but at least you only eat the good bit.

I made these this morning and they were well liked. One lady decided she would slit it and put jam on it. I cringed and explained again that they were savoury. She loved it. Later when I thought about it I think it would have been nice as I like jam and cheese sandwiches.
Great recipe Chookie.

Cookie,  glad that they were a success.  Apricot jam might be nice.

Just finished some of these for our lunch,they are devine. I didn't have corn or black olives but used stuffed green olives and some fresh basil. Found some muffin top tins also. Highly recommend these,thanks again for sharing.

Bedlam,  so glad you like them.  Those MuffinTop tins are really handy,  I have been cooking the flat bread rolls in them.

[Bedlam]

Mmm great idea,you guys do all the thinking for me!

I made these for lunch to accompany soup.  I played with the ingredients a bit, had one cup Colby cheese and a small wedge of blue, didn't have sun dried tomatoes so used some split green chili olives as well as the black, also threw in a bit of parsley too.  Super yummy.  Didn't have muffin top tins so scratched around and found two 12 hole patty pans, did the trick and I was feeling clever too!  Thanks for a great recipe.

Kris makes, love your improvisation.

Me too Chookie, I tend to stick to recipes although I guess I am getting a little more adventurous these days.  Well done krismakes.

We had these again tonight with pumpkin soup. Thought I would bump the recipe for newbies as they are so good.

I'd never heard of muffin top pans and a search of the internet couldn't find me any that would ship to Hobart. I wanted silicone and I wanted them now! I decided to give savoury muffins a go just scooping mixture on to a flat silicone baking tray. I was careful not to make the mix too thin and amazingly it worked. I ended up with a big flat (probably 1 cm thick) muffin cookie. They were soft like muffins with a crisper edge. I'd have to say they were a success and would also go nicely in the toaster.
Just thought I'd share this in case anyone else can't get muffin top pans. I don't normally like savoury muffins and I suspect it is because there is too much of the light fluffy bit and not enough crust. This seemed to solve that problem.
