Ingredients
1 small red onion, diced
a dash of olive oil
50g melted butter
1 egg, lightly beaten
250ml milk
275g self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground nutmeg
75g cheddar cheese, grated
2 tbsp sweetcorn kernels
Method
Place 12 bun cases into a bun tin and set aside. Preheat your oven to 200ºC/gas mark 6.
Heat the olive oil over a low heat and add the thinly diced onion. Fry it for a minute then place a lid on top and sweat the onion until it is completely translucent. Set aside to cool.
Stir the butter, milk and egg together until combined, set aside.
Sieve the flour, nutmeg and baking powder into a large bowl. Add the cheese and stir. Pour in the wet ingredients and combine well then add in the onion and the sweetcorn.
Scoop the batter between the twelve bun cases and place the tin into the centre of your oven. Bake for about 18 minutes until the tops are golden.
Once cool enough to handle place them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
