These Bacon, Corn, Rosemary Muffins are my families latest obsession. They’re not only a delicious combination of flavours, but the crumb is just spot on. I’ve tested them with The Wholefood Collective organic gluten-free wholemeal flour.
They are perfect for a breakfast on the go, with soup for lunch or for morning or afternoon tea. My kids also love them in their lunchbox. They can also be frozen which makes them great for batch baking. I always warm my Bacon, Corn, Rosemary Muffins by placing them in my sandwich press (and then slathering with butter because it’s my weakness ha ha)!

Would this work with half spelt half buckwheat or maybe half rice flour half buckwheat?
Georgia Harding says
I haven’t tested it Deb, but it should be okay, perhaps a little on the dense side. Let me know how it goes G x

Another delicious recipe, Georgia! We made a vegetarian option and they were particularly great warmed with butter.

These are lovely, the texture was great, not too heavy. Even my son, who doesn’t normally eat muffins, really liked them. Definitely one for school lunchboxes. Thanks Georgia!

Sheryn says
Would it work using almond meal/flour?
Georgia Harding says
I haven’t recipe tested it but I’d add in some arrowroot with it or even half buckwheat flour – just for a bit more structure. Let me know how it goes G x
