<\/span>Ingredients<\/span><\/h3>
  • olive oil<\/span><\/li>
  • 600g<\/span> (21oz)<\/span> sweet potatoes <\/span> or \u00bd a butternut squash<\/span><\/li>
  • 4<\/span> spring onions<\/span><\/li>
  • 1 to 2<\/span> fresh red chillies<\/span><\/li>
  • 6<\/span> large free-range eggs<\/span><\/li>
  • 3<\/span> tablespoons<\/span> cottage cheese<\/span><\/li>
  • 250g<\/span> (g8.8oz)<\/span> wholemeal self-raising flour<\/span><\/li>
  • 50g<\/span> (1.8oz)<\/span> Parmesan cheese<\/span><\/li>
  • 1<\/span> tablespoon<\/span> sunflower seeds<\/span><\/li>
  • 1<\/span> tablespoon<\/span> poppy seeds<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n

    <\/span>Instructions<\/span><\/h3>
    • Preheat the oven to 180\u00b0C\/350\u00b0F\/gas 4. Line a 12-hole muffin tin with paper cases or 15cm folded squares of greaseproof paper, then lightly wipe each one with oiled kitchen paper.<\/div><\/li>
    • Peel the sweet potatoes or squash and coarsely grate into a large bowl. Trim the spring onions, then finely slice with the chilli and add to the bowl, reserving half the chilli to one side.<\/div><\/li>
    • Crack in the eggs, add the cottage cheese and flour, then finely grate in most of the Parmesan and season with sea salt and black pepper. Mix until nicely combined.<\/div><\/li>
    • Evenly divide the muffin mixture between the cases. Sprinkle over the sunflower and poppy seeds, then dot over the reserved slices of chilli.<\/div><\/li>
    • Use the remaining Parmesan to give a light dusting of cheese over each one, then bake at the bottom of the oven for 45 to 50 minutes (if using squash, it\u2019ll be a bit quicker \u2013 check after 35 minutes), or until golden and set.<\/div><\/li>
    • These are amazing served warm 5 minutes after taking them out of the oven, and good kept in the fridge for a couple of days. Enjoy 2 muffins per portion.<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n
