Cheese and fennel muffins, from Signe Johansen, are a savoury version 
of the sweet classic and are so quick to make that you can knock up a 
batch in no time

TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS:
These are made with spelt flour for a better taste and texture, but 
if you dont have any, use plain and wholemeal wheat flour instead.

If you dont have a muffin tin, this recipe can easily be baked for 40 
minutes or so in a loaf tin as a quick cheesy bread, which keeps for 
a few days, toasts well and tastes marvellous grilled with a little 
extra cheese on top.

Preheat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5.

Line the muffin tray with baking parchment or paper muffin cups, or 
lightly grease so the muffins doesn't stick.

Sift all the dry ingredients in to a large bowl and stir to 
distribute the raising agents and seasoning evenly through the mix.

Dissolve the Marmite in a tablespoon or two of boiling water, and add 
to the milk.

Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and add all the 
liquid ingredients.

Stir a couple of times before gently folding in the cheese until the 
mixture is just combined.

Use an ice cream scoop or teaspoon to spoon the batter into the 
muffin cups, filling them three-quarters full.

Bake on the upper-middle shelf of the oven for 25-30 minutes for 
large muffins, or 15-25 minutes for smaller ones, depending on your oven.

Scatter another fine grating of cheese over the muffins as they cool 
on a wire rack.

Enjoy hot or cold, either on their own or with soups or salads as a 
nice alternative to ordinary bread.

Makes 6 large or 12 small muffins
