Gluten-Free Savory Muffins with Mushrooms and Thyme
These gluten-free savory muffins with mushrooms and thyme are light, fluffy, and packed with flavor. Easy to make and ready in under an hour, they're perfect as a snack, side, or appetizer.
Add the chopped onion and mushrooms, thyme, dill, salt and pepper. Saute for 5 minutes.
Cover with a lid and remove from heat.
Separate the egg whites from the egg yolks.
Whisk the egg whites in a large bowl until foamy (you can use a hand mixer or a food processor).
Add the salt and thyme. Mix.
Combine the gluten-free flour with the baking powder.
Add the beaten egg yolks and slowly fold them into the foamy egg whites using a spatula.
Start adding the flour to the bowl, little by little, continuously incorporating it with the spatula.
Once all the flour is incorporated, add the oil and the sauteed mushrooms.
Mix gently until well blended.
Place the muffin cups in the 12-muffin pan.
Add batter to each muffin cup - about 2 Tbsps.
Add 1 mushroom slice on top of each muffin.
Bake in the preheated oven at 180C for 25 minutes. Check with a toothpick to see if they're ready.
Notes
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 4 days. The dill is optional but highly recommended for extra flavor. Warm briefly before serving to bring back the fluffy texture.
