These are the muffins that I took on the plane with us to Japan. They freeze well and are ideal for travelling with or for putting in lunch boxes straight from the freezer. The recipe is modified from one in the Coles Baby & Toddler Magazine, I didn’t have any millet flour so used rice flour and wholemeal flour as well as the white flour. If you can’t have ham (very high amines), don’t worry you can substitute Real Deli Chicken from Real Meals or cooked Failsafe Sausages.
