These savoury muffins are simple to whip up in your Thermomix! They’re a nutritious, tasty light meal.
An awesome addition to anyone’s lunchbox – child or adult! Also great served straight out of the oven with a side salad.
They are very tasty, super filling and much more nutritious than many other savoury muffins, plus the Thermomix makes light work of whipping up that batter!
How to make these Savoury Muffins in your Thermomix
(Full recipe is below this visual guide)
Just a few steps and these are in the oven. Then it’s just a 15 minute (baking) wait til they’re ready!
After pre-heating the oven to 180C and preparing a muffin tray, blitz cheddar cheese in mixer bowl. Transfer to a bowl and set aside for now.
Next, place red kidney beans, sour cream, butter and eggs in mixer bowl. Blitz to chop and combine thoroughly.
Add red capsicum and chop.
Add flour, corn kernels, tomato paste, baking powder, onion flakes, cumin, garlic granules, salt and most of the cheese. Mix.
Spoon mixture into muffin tray. Top with remaining cheese. Bake 15 minutes. Magic!

I made these on Sunday for a picnic and to bring to work. They are really lovely! Cant’t wait to try the sushi tonight. Thank you so much for sharing all these great recipes. I just bought a thermomix and the French recipe book is a bit conservative for my taste. there is a lovely vegetarian book though : ) Cheers from Geneva!
Delicious!! I also only had greek yoghurt so subbed that for the sour cream. They were amazing hot out the oven with a little bit of butter… mmm. Really nice cold as well. Reheated beautifully the next day for lunch. Thanks Bek!!
Yum yum yum
I only had Greek yogurt
I didn’t have butter so added an extra egg
I didn’t take the cheese out after the grate as I missed that step oops!
Used fresh corn sliced of the cob and it had a wonderful crunch in the cooked muffin.
You are the best!!
