Number Of Ingredients 16

Butter or oil spray (, for greasing)
2 cups (200g) cheddar cheese (, shredded (or other cheese))
75g / 2.5oz feta (, crumbled*)
1/2 cup green olives slices (*)
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes strips (*)
1/2 cup roasted peppers (*, drained and chopped (capsicum))
1/2 cup green onions (*, sliced )
2 cups (300g) flour ((plain / all purpose flour))
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda (/ bi-carb soda (sub 1 1/2 tsp baking powder))
1/2 tsp salt
1 egg ((large, about 60g / 2 oz))
1 cup (250 ml) milk ((full or low fat))
1/4 cup (60g) sour cream (or plain yoghurt (Note 1))
1/4 cup (60ml) vegetable oil ( (or any plain flavoured oil))
1 garlic clove (, minced)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F (160°C/320°F fan).
  • Brush a 12 hole standard muffin tin generously with butter
  • Whisk Dry ingredients in a bowl.
  • Whisk Wet ingredients in a separate bowl.
  • Pour Wet into the Dry ingredients bowl. Mix 8 times.
  • Add cheese, feta, sun dried tomato, capsicum, olives and green onion. Mix as few times as possible just to incorporate remaining bits of flour - no more than 7 big stirs (secret to soft muffs).
  • Divide between 12 holes in muffin in (I use an ice cream scooper). Batter should be thick and fill muffin tin slightly mounded (see video)
  • Bake for 25 minutes or until the muffins are golden and crusty and spring back when touched in the centre.
  • Cool for 10 minutes, then transfer to cooling rack. Serve warm for optimum experience!

HERBED FETA STUFFED MINI BELL PEPPERS



Herbed Feta Stuffed Mini Bell Peppers image

I recently got two pounds of mini bell peppers at Costco, and after eating about half of them raw (yum! they're so sweet and tasty!) we got to the point where I needed to find something else to do with them. Here's what I came up with, and having just eaten one, I can assure you they're absolutely delicious! These can be either baked (which I usually do), or eaten uncooked.

Time 55m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb orange bell peppers or 1 lb yellow bell pepper
1 1/2 cups crumbled feta cheese
2 tablespoons sherry wine
1/3 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon minced dried basil or 1 tablespoon minced fresh basil
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon dried ancho chile powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt or 1/4 teaspoon salt or seasoning salt, to taste (I use Johnny's)

Steps:

  • Cut the tops off the mini bell peppers and take out the seeds and larger white veins; rinse out with water, then set aside.
  • Put the crumbled feta cheese in a bowl and add the sherry; toss to coat.
  • Mix together well the remaining ingredients in a separate bowl, then add the mixture to the feta cheese and toss to mix them all well.
  • Spray a large casserole dish (I use a large oval white Corning Ware) with an olive oil mister or pan spray.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Stuff each mini bell pepper with the herbed feta mixture, making sure there's a good amount of feta in each pepper; place peppers in the casserole dish.
  • When all peppers are stuffed, place cover on casserole dish and bake in oven for 30 to 45 minutes until peppers are nice and soft and the cheese is melted. If too much of the cheese melts out of the peppers, use a spoon to put it back in. :)
  • Serve and enjoy!
