savoury corn and chilli muffins

I love savoury muffins, much more than the sweet kind.

Savoury muffins make a great snack, a good meal with a side salad and work well in a lunchbox where 10 seconds in a microwave will revive them, making them great for taking to work. They also freeze well.

These ones are my favourite. I used to make them before I was a vegan. They have a Mexican themed flavouring with smoky chillies, tomato, corn and coriander. They also have ZUCCHINI in them, which is a bonus since I am now struggling to keep pace with the zucchini bounty. 🙂

Muffins are really easy to make, just chuck all the dry ingredients in a bowl, throw the wet ingredients in, stir briefly until just combined and cook for 20 minutes. You can put anything you like into a muffin (within reason) and they’ll almost certainly be delicious.

I ate these ones warm,  with some Butter Me Up from Half Pint Vegan Dairy and some red pepper relish.
