Goat Cheese and Walnut Muffins

Well, we agree, the weather is not yet perfect for picnics but I suggest you practice making delicious Goat Cheese and Walnut Muffins to put in your basket.

I made this recipe using little goat cheese because it has the perfect texture and flavor. The little pieces of cheese are very soft and you can find them in the muffins when you eat them.

A real treat, almost like souffles when they come out of the oven!

They are so good and easy to make that I couldn’t keep them to myself. Plus, living in nut country, what could be better.

For those who want to, you can also add a spoonful of honey to the dough or aromatic herbs like rosemary… Or for the more gourmet, just before serving, you can even add a drizzle of honey on top of the muffins.

They will be very good as an aperitif with a nice green salad.
