Tips:
- Prepare your ingredients beforehand: Chop your tomatoes, grate your cheese, and preheat your oven before starting to mix the batter. This will make the process much quicker and smoother.
- Use ripe, juicy tomatoes: This will ensure that your muffins are packed with flavor. If your tomatoes are not ripe, you can roast them in the oven for a few minutes to bring out their sweetness.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make your muffins tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that they are cooked through.
- Let the muffins cool slightly before serving: This will help them to hold their shape.
