Easy to prepare and irresistibly satisfying, these savoury muffins are a must-try for any home baker looking to combine gourmet flavor with wholesome goodness.
Preheat your oven to 190Β°C (375Β°F) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease each cup with oil.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the barley flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar until evenly combined.
Add the chopped rosemary and grated Parmesan to the flour mixture, and stir well to evenly distribute the ingredients.
In a separate medium bowl, beat the egg lightly. Add the milk, olive oil, and Greek yogurt, whisking until smooth and well blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix with a spatula or wooden spoon just until combined. Avoid overmixing as this can make the muffins dense.
Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly among the muffin tin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops of the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely or serve warm.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days. Reheat before serving for the best texture.
