Mini Cheese Muffins With Brie image

These make great party nibbles or just to eat by themselves without the Brie filling. Another recipe from "Annabelle Cooks" In response to another chef's question I have added sugar as an optional ingredient. The original recipe does not have it. I guess it is personal taste :)

Time 30m

Yield 36 mini muffins

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 egg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup olive oil
2 cups flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
2 cups tasty cheddar cheese (grated)
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
1/2 cup cooked bacon (finely chopped)
1 1/2 cups milk
grated cheddar cheese, extra for topping (or use crumbled blue vein for a change)
125 g brie cheese (sliced)

Steps:

  • Pre heat the oven to 190'C/375'F.
  • Beat the egg, salt and oil together lightly and set aside.
  • Sift together the flour and baking powder into a bowl, stir in the sugar (if using) and then mix in the bacon, cheese and parsley.
  • Make a well in the centre and add in the egg mixture and milk.
  • Mix until just combined - do not over mix.
  • Spoon into mini muffin tins and sprinkle with the extra cheese.
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown.
  • Remove from oven and leave in tins for 5 mins before turning out onto a rack and cover with a cloth.
  • When they have cooled, make a slit in them and place in it a small slice of Brie.
  • When required, reheat in a hot oven until the cheese melts. This will only take a few minutes.
