preschool lunch next week, needs to be a healthy option, and i've put my hand up to make savoury muffins. would like to avoid ham/bacon, i'm fairly sure we have at least one muslim child in the class (and i hate not catering for everyone).

any yummy, scrummy, easy to make savoury muffin recipes you'd like the share?

I have used this recipe Cheese and chutney mini muffins and the kids and adults loved them. I also followed the tips in the comments and added more chutney feta and Parmesan.

My DH was skeptical of savory muffins, but really enjoyed them. I used a spicey sweet tomato chutney.

This is my tried and true muffin recipe, which I got from an EB friend. This one never goes wrong, ever, once you get the timing right for your oven. This is a sweet muffin recipe but you can see at the bottom that you only need to omit the sugar to make it savoury. The baked beans muffin option listed is a big hit at our place.
