Masala Muffins

• One 8oz bag of masala muffin mix
• 1/2 cup cilantro leaves, finely chopped
• 1 1/8 cups water (267g)
• 1 1/3 tablespoons oil
• (Optional) nigella seeds for topping
• (Optional) chives, finely chopped for topping

How to:

• Heat the oven to 350 Farenheight and line baking tins with muffin tins
• Wait until the oven is preheated and tins are lined before working on muffin batter! It needs to go into the oven immediately after being mixed.
• In a large bowl, add the muffin mix, water, oil, cilantro and mix.
• Working quickly, scoop about ⅓ cup of batter into each muffin tin.
• Bake on the center rack for 13-16 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Transfer the muffins to a wired baking rack and allow to cool before serving.

Pro-tip: For added depth of flavor, caramalize 1/2 a cup of onions with salt, pepper and a little sugar and add to the muffin batter in step 3.
