Muffins are the perfect little snack for weaning. There's a few reasons for this:
They are easy to make. You can use a large variety of fillings and flavourings. They are easily portable. They are freezable They have the perfect texture for baby led weaning. . They are delicious.
For these muffins I decided to go down the route of savoury. Reuben has always been more keen on his savoury foods and cheese is always a massive hit. The progression from there was obvious, as what goes better with cheese than tomato! When creating this recipe I used some sun-dried tomato paste that I had leftover in the fridge, but feel free to substitute this with normal tomato puree, as it will work just as well... there is really no need to purchase sun-dried tomatoes specifically for this recipe!
I tend to use these as a snack for Reuben, but believe me they are just as good for adults. Why not try cutting them in half and toasting them... delicious!
