    • 280g (2 cups) self-raising flour
    • 5ml (1 tsp) baking powder
    • 30ml (2 tbsp) castor sugar
    • 250ml (1 cup) grated baby marrow, squeezed between your hands to remove excess moisture
    • 1 roasted red pepper, chopped

    • 30ml (2 tbsp) dill, chopped
    • 190ml (¾ cup) milk

    • 2 large eggs
    • 10ml (2 tsp) sea salt flakes

    Instructions

    1

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Lightly grease a 12 x 80ml (3/4 cup) muffin pan.

    2

    Sift the flour and baking powder into a large bowl. Stir in the sugar, baby marrow, red pepper, 250ml (1 cup) grated cheese and dill.

    3

    Whisk the milk, oil and eggs together in a jug. Add to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

    4

    Divide the mixture evenly between muffin holes. Sprinkle the tops with sea salt and extra grated Cheddar. Bake until a skewer inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean, about 12 – 15 minutes. Allow to stand for 5 minutes then turn onto a wire rack.
