Fluffy savoury muffins with golden fried onions, juicy cherry tomatoes and aromatic fresh basil. Perfect as a snack, a light lunch or a delicious addition to a party buffet.

Preparation instructions:

  • 1.

    Peel and finely dice the onion. Fry in hot oil until golden brown. Transfer to a small bowl and leave to cool. Wash the cherry tomatoes and cut them into quarters.

  • 2.

    Sift the plain flour, potato starch, Gellwe Baking Powder, Gellwe Baking Soda and salt into a bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the milk, oil and eggs, whisking together until well mixed.

  • 3.

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Add the fried onion, cherry tomatoes and basil, then gently fold together with a spatula until just combined. Do not use an electric mixer. Line a muffin tin with paper cases.

  • 4.

    Spoon the batter into the paper cases, filling each one about two-thirds full. Bake in a fan oven preheated to 180°C for approximately 20–25 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Leave to cool on a wire rack.
