Savoury Halloumi Bites

These halloumi bites are one of my favourite snacks. They work perfectly well for solo mid-week breakfasts or lunches, and weekend brunches or afternoon teas too. Above all they're freezable. You just can't go wrong with this recipe.

Cook Time45 minutes
Total Time1 hour
Servings: 12 bites

Ingredients

  • 1 block halloumi
  • 30 g finely grated parmesan (and extra for sprinkling)
  • 225 g self-raising flour
  • 2 medium-sized eggs
  • 100 ml sunflower oil
  • 50-100 ml milk
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 200°C/392°F/gas 6 and line a twelve-hole muffin tin with muffin cases. Grate the parmesan and dice the halloumi.
  • Crack the eggs into a measuring jug, pour in the oil and top up with enough milk to make 300 ml. Beat the mixture together and then pour it into a large mixing bowl, along with the flour, salt and black pepper. Beat together until fully combined.
  • Fold in the halloumi and parmesan into the bowl. Divide the mixture between the cases and top with extra parmesan.
  • Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes cleanly out of the muffins. Leave to cool completely on a wire rack. Enjoy!
