David's Cheese Muffins

I've made these with a variety of cheeses. Also, adding chopped parsley, caraway seeds, olives, sun-dried tomatoes etc would be great. A sprinkle of parmesan on top is nice too. The recipe makes between 30 and 35 depending on how big you make them.

Preheat oven to 200°C

Ingredients

4 eggs
1 L milk
200 g melted butter

8 cups plain flour
8 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (more or less to taste)
2 cups cheese (I used about a cup of grated Mainland Egmont, half a cup of grated Kapiti Aged Gouda and 2 packets of crumbled Castello Blue)

To sprinkle on top:
pumpkin seeds
sesame seeds
sunflower seeds

Method

Beat eggs and milk together, then add the butter and mix well.

In another bigger bowl, combine the dry ingredients including the cheese, make a well in the centre and add the wet mixture. Mix till just combined.

Spoon big tablespoons of the mix into greased muffin tins, sprinkle seeds on top and bake at 200°C for 15 mins.  Let them cool for a couple of minutes before transferring to a wire rake to cool down a bit. They are delicious while still warm.  If they are chewy then you probably mixed too much.
