Halloumi super muffins are my boy’s back-to-school treat. Also an incentive to wake up in the morning! Savoury, golden, and full of flavour — our halloumi muffins are the perfect blend of rustic comfort and gourmet flair.

Each muffin is baked to perfection with chunks of salty halloumi cheese, fresh herbs, and a touch of spice, creating a moist, fluffy bite with a crispy top. Whether enjoyed warm or cold, they make a delicious snack, breakfast, or light lunch. Ideal for cheese lovers, these muffins pair beautifully with chutneys, fresh salad, or a dollop of yoghurt.

A hearty vegetarian treat that’s full of character in every bite.

They freeze beautifully and can be reheated.. Sooooo gooey and cheesy.
