Grease 6 holes of a muffin pan very well indeed with melted butter or extra oil (savoury muffins really stick to papers so I don’t recommend using them)

Preheat the oven to 200°C

Whisk wet ingredients together

Stir all of the dry ingredients together reserving 1 tbsp of the cheese and a a few pieces of sausage to top the muffins with

Stir wet into dry ingredients and only just combine them – do not beat! Remember a lumpy batter makes a lighter muffin

Divide the batter between the prepared muffin holes and sprinkle with the reserved cheese and sausage pieces

Bake for 20-25 minutes until well risen and browned. Depending on the cheese, this may bubble and ooze or it may brown. All of this being good!

Muffins are best eaten with the warm breath of the oven still on them.
