Ingredients

• 300g (2 cups) self-raising flour
• 155g (3/4 cup) caster sugar
• 50g (1/2 cup) rolled oats
• 65g (3/4 cup) coarsely grated South Cape Vintage Cheddar

Method

• Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease twelve 80ml (1/3-cup) muffin pans. Combine the flour, sugar, oats, cheddar and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the centre.
• Whisk the oil, milk, egg and grated apple in a large jug. Add the oil mixture to the flour mixture and stir until just combined. Spoon among the prepared pans.
