Ingredients

  • 500 ml (2 cups) unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 15 ml (1 tbsp) baking powder
  • 1.25 ml (¼ tsp) baking soda
  • 5 ml (1 tsp) garlic powder
  • 10 ml (2 tsp) onion powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 80 ml (1/3 cup) extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1.25 ml (¼ tsp) nutmeg
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • 250 ml (1 cup) canned diced tomatoes

  • 430 ml (1 ¾ cups) Saputo Mozzarellissima cheese, grated

  1. Butter and flour 12 muffin moulds. Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F).
  2. In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, olive oil, nutmeg, and pepper. Add the tomatoes and combine thoroughly.

  6. Divide the batter among the muffin moulds and top with remaining cheese. Bake in the oven 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre of a muffin comes out clean.
