Introduction

I made these muffins without thought. Just a search through the pantry and took out what was needed. It turned out really nice! The oil from saute-ing the tomatos and mushrooms provide the fat for the muffins, so no worries! Plus they are good for you!

1 cup flour
1 cup polenta
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon superfine sugar
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons fresh basil
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 chopped tomato
1 handful chopped mushrooms
1 clove garlic (optional)
1 cup buttermilk
1 egg
½ cup chopped mozzarella
