It is no secret that we LOVE recipes that are quick, easy and delish. It is also no secret that we love savoury muffins. Paleo pumpkin and sundried tomato savoury muffins to be exact.
The best thing about this recipe is that if sundried tomatoes aren’t your thing (seriously… how is that possible? They are so yum) you can just swap them for something else!
Think basil, bacon, capsicum, eggplant, cashews, cheese! What ever floats your savoury muffin boat!
We used ghee in this recipe… which is clarified butter. Basically it’s amazing because it tastes ridiculously cheesey like, minus the lactose and casein (as that’s removed in the process!). This is perfect for us because Carla can’t do dairy (even though she does sometimes! Hehe).
The amazing guys at Primal Collective hooked us up with our ghee… and it’s by far our fave ghee we’ve ever tasted.
These muffins are the perfect little snack to pack in your lunch box for afternoon tea! We also discussed how YUM these muffins would be for dinner, like as a side, like a bread roll almost! Imagine dipping it in soup! Or soaking up sauce from our lasagna!
Yes, these are the kinds of conversations we have every day. We do have alotta fun! Afterall… that is one of our #10MerrySteps!
Have you already popped paleo pumpkin and sundried tomato savoury muffins on your ‘to bake’ list? Yes?! Good! Well you better get to it… because that list is getting long and life calls for these muffins to be in your life STAT!
Always merrymaking,
Emma + Carla

Yum – these look delicious. I usually make sweet muffins but as you say, these would be amazing with soup or even a salad. YUM! x

Hi girls..third time lucky..assuming you mean ‘almond meal’ not ‘almond milk’ in the instructions?
Cheers
Nikki
They do sound delicious, just one question: ingredients say Almond ‘Meal’ but method says Almond ‘Milk’… which is it please?

Hehe we ate them all Mum! 😛 OOOOOPS!
These were absolutely delish! Mr 6 and miss 3 loved them. Didn’t have sundries toms or scallions, so I used black olives and purple onion. Thanks for the recipe girls xo

Yay Nat! Super glad you liked this recipe! Ohhh your flavour combo sounds DELISH! xox
Hi girls, I love this recipe and have made it heaps of times! I am running low on almond meal at the moment though, could I use anything instead? Coconut flour maybe?
Thanks! xx

You could use any nut meal. Coconut flour isn’t the best replacement as it makes the mix really dry, you could try but but we’d suggest only using a very very small amount 🙂
Hi
Has anyone tried freezing these?
Author
Hi Catherine! We haven’t tried but surely they’d be great! Just freeze in individual portions so you can defrost as you go! Let us know how they turn out!
Just wandering if these froze well? Thinking they would be great for kids lunch boxes.

They sure do! 🙂 🙂 Wrap in foil and freeze separately!
