Description
Julie Andrews might have counted a crisp apple strudel as one of her favourite things, but – for us – it’s a perfectly-made muffin with cheese, prosciutto and a generous helping of Ballymaloe Relish (our Pepper Relish is just as tasty, but with a little bit of a kick!) To ensure your muffins are the best they can be, don’t over-stir your mix. Once the ingredients have come together, put your stirring spoon down! Stick to this rule and you are guaranteed light, delicious muffins.

- Divide the mixture between 12 lightly-greased muffin tins, lined with paper cases, and cook for 25 minutes or until they leave a skewer clean.
- Turn out on to a wire rack to cool slightly. Serve with an extra, generous dollop of Ballymaloe Relish or Pepper Relish.
