Vegemite is a popular spread in Australia, known for its salty flavour and distinctive aroma. It is made from yeast extract and is often enjoyed on toast or in sandwiches. In this recipe, we've incorporated vegemite into a savoury muffin that is perfect for a quick and easy snack. The addition of cheese and spring onions make these muffins even more delicious, creating a flavourful combination that will leave you wanting more. These muffins are perfect for those who like savoury snacks but still want something a little bit sweet.

Instructions

1.	Preheat oven to 200°C and line a 12-hole standard muffin pan with muffin cases.
2.	In a separate bowl, combine the flour and baking powder.
3.	In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, oil, vegemite and eggs until well combined.
4.	Add the flour mixture and stir to combine.
5.	Add in the spring onions and cheese, and stir until well distributed.
6.	Pour the batter into the muffin cases, filling each to about two-thirds full.
7.	Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
