These muffins are a great “grab-and-go” breakfast to eat on the move, or as a savory mid-morning snack.

You can swap the filling for any savoury filling you fancy. It’s great with just mushrooms and bacon, or with roasted vegetables and cheese.

The muffins are best eaten while they are still warm – but they will they will keep for up to two days in an airtight container. They can be frozen easily, and can then be reheated to serve.
