We all know muffins well and like to treat ourselves to them. But what happens if we add salt instead of sugar when baking them? Three recipes for salty muffins prove that this delicacy is incredibly tasty even in its salty form.
1. Spicy muffins with ricotta
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- a pinch of chili powder
- a pinch of basil
- a pinch of pepper
- a pinch of oregano
- a pinch of garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- some chives
- 3 tablespoons of olive oil
- half a bag of baking powder
- 150 ml of yogurt
- 150 ml of milk
- 300 g of flour of your choice
- 250 g of ricotta
- 100 g of spicy sausage
- 3 tablespoons of sun-dried tomatoes
- a pinch of basil
Directions
- Cut the sausage into small pieces, mix it with the ricotta and lightly salt and pepper it. Add the chives, basil, oregano, tomatoes and garlic and mix well.
- Separate the yolks from the whites and beat the whites until stiff peaks form. Meanwhile, mix the chili, yogurt and oil and gradually add the flour mixed with baking powder and milk to the mixture. Then add snow from egg whites to the mixture.
- Place the paper molds in the muffin tins. Alternately add one spoonful of dough (egg mixture) and half a spoonful of filling (sausage mixture) to each one. The dough mixture should be on top, and the mixture should be enough for 24 muffins.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in an oven heated to 180°C. Bon Appetit!
2. Muffins with zucchini and bacon
