Directions
- Heat oven to 180C. Grease a 12-pan muffin tin with butter.
- Heat olive oil in a frying pan on medium heat. Cook onions until soft and starting to caramelise, 8-10 minutes. Add balsamic vinegar, sugar and a good pinch of salt and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes until the balsamic has reduced.
- Place grated courgette in a clean tea towel and wring to squeeze out excess water.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix caramelised balsamic onions, courgette, pumpkin, spinach, corn, sundried tomatoes, salt, pepper, mustard, parmesan, milk, eggs and olive oil together until well combined.
- Sieve wholemeal flour and baking powder together and add to vegetable mixture. Use a large metal spoon to gently fold the two mixtures together until just combined. Do not overmix the mixture to avoid the muffins being tough.
- Spoon mixture into muffin tins, dividing equally. Sprinkle pumpkin seeds over the top. Bake for 30 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the muffin comes out clean.
- Remove from the muffin tins and cool on a wire rack.
