One-Bowl Halloumi Muffins, gluten-free

Prepare these simple one-bowl gluten-free Halloumi Muffins for your weekly meal prep for school or work lunches. The combination of halloumi, zucchini, and mint creates a delicious flavour profile, while the almond meal adds a touch of sweetness reminiscent of Cypriot Flaounes.

Flaounes

These are small savoury buns stuffed with halloumi, raisins, and mint and garnished with sesame seeds. It is a combination that may seem unusual but works wonderfully. Unfortunately, there is a bit of work involved in making Flaounes so I’ve opted to create something with similar flavours but is much easier to whip up and cook. In fact, all you need is a grater, a bowl and a muffin tin. 


Not a fan of the sweetness?

If you are not a fan of combining savoury and sweet, leave out the honey or you can swap it for maple syrup if you are not a fan of honey. I’ve also written that you can add plain flour instead of coconut flour which will once again reduce that hint of sweetness.
