  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius (fan forced). Line a 12 hole muffin tray with muffin liners. Set aside.

Notes

RECIPE NOTES & TIPS
  • You can use cheddar or Tasty cheese, or use a combination of either of the two with parmesan cheese for extra flavour.
  • Fresh chives are best, however, you can use dried chives.
  • Chop the butter before adding to the Thermomix. This helps it to melt and stops it sticking to the blades.
  • Scrape down the sides of the bowl partway through adding the remaining ingredients. This ensures even mixing.
  • You can add cooked crispy bacon or diced ham to the mixture if you like.
  • This recipe can be doubled.
  • Line your muffin tray with paper liners.
  • Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
  • Defrost the muffins and then reheat in the oven or air fryer - this keeps the muffins crunchy on the top, while staying soft and fluffy on the inside.
