Description

Turn leftover bolognese sauce into delicious savoury muffins, perfect to pop into school lunchboxes for kids


Ingredients

  • 2 medium eggs
  • 100ml milk
  • 75g melted butter
  • 250g leftover bolognese sauce
  • 120g grated cheddar cheese
  • 200g plain flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180c and line a 12 hole muffin tray with cases.
  2. Add the eggs, milk and melted butter to a large bowl and mix.
  3. Add the leftover bolognese sauce and grated cheese and mix again.
  4. Add the flour and baking powder and mix for a final time.
  5. Transfer the mixture into to the muffin cases. I find the easiest way to do this is to use an ice cream scoop.
  6. Bake in the oven for 25 minutes.

Notes

Leftover muffins can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave or oven if you wish.

To freeze, allow them to cool then pop into a freezer bag. These muffins will defrost at room temperature in a couple of hours.
