Ingredients
  • 250g (9oz) Feel Free All Purpose Flour
  • 1¼ tsp gluten-free baking powder
  • 150g (5½oz) strong Cheddar cheese, grated
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ tsp turmeric (optional)
  • 1 tsp mustard powder (optional)
  • cubed bacon, grilled until just cooked
  • 100ml (3½fl oz) natural yoghurt (lactose free)
  • 100ml (3½fl oz) milk (lactose free)
  • 2 free-range eggs
Method
  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/Gas Mark 6. Line nine holes of a 12-hole muffin tin with muffin cases.
  2. Mix together the flour, baking powder cheese, bacon (once cooled), salt, pepper and the spices.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat together the eggs, yoghurt and milk.
  4. Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and add the wet mixture. Mix gently, but quickly and don’t over-mix. The mixture should be wet enough to fall off the spatula – add a drop more milk if necessary.
  5. Put about a dessert spoon of mixture in each muffin case, then bake in the centre of the oven for 15 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the muffin comes out clean. Turn out onto a wire rack to cool.
