This is my second attempt at making savoury muffins. On my first attempt, I baked them in paper cups and there were not much to be savoured as much of them got stuck onto the paper. Had to scrape the crumbs off the paper in order to get more bite. So, today I just lightly greased the patty tins and after baking, they could be easily dislodged. Had them with some green tomato chutney made with brown sugar, compliments from my neighbour and they were delicious ........ a hearty meal.
Yummy, straight from the oven and served with some chutney. The tangy green tomato chutney made a nice accompaniment for the slightly savoury muffins.

Not too bad a combination, think bacon is better than ham. Tastes great with chutney, give it a try and thanks for dropping by.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried any savoury muffins yet. These look lovely. I'm sure it taste delicious especially with the bacon. Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteWhen I'm lazy to whip up a meal, I'll just make this, and have some nice 'kopi 'O'' to go with it.
