Cheese and Herb Muffin Bread

Cheese and Herb Muffins

1 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup grated cheese (any sort, but I always include a bit of parmesan)
1/2 cup  fresh parsley, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh chopped herbs
1 handful fresh chopped chives
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
Pinch smoked paprika
1 egg
1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons milk
2 tablespoons plain yoghurt or sour cream

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees celsius and prepare a muffin or loaf tin.

Take a large bowl and sift the flour and baking powder into it. Add the grated cheese and chopped herbs, the salt, sugar and paprika, and stir to combine.

In a small bowl whisk together the egg, milk and yoghurt or sour cream. Add to the dry ingredients and fold in gently, until just combined.

Spoon into the prepared tin and bake until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean (about 20 minutes for muffins).
