Instructions

pre-heat the oven to 170°C and line a muffin tray with paper cases (14).
combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl
rub the butter into the flour with your fingertips until the mix resembles fine breadcrumbs
mix in the grated cheddar chopped herbs and pumpkin seeds
whisk the eggs and milk together in a separate bowl
pour into the flour and mix to a chunky paste
gently stir in the goat's cheese
half fill the muffin cases and pop them onto the middle shelf of the pre-heated oven

Notes

try adding a few chopped sun-dried tomatoes in place of the pumpkin seeds
they are best eaten warm
