½ tsp	Salt
2 tsp	Baking powder
1½ cups	Flour
1 cup	Baby spinach, leaves, roughly chopped
1 cup	Cheese, grated
50 g	Butter, melted
2	Eggs, lightly wisked
¾ cup	Milk
100 g	Cream cheese
8 slices	Smoked salmon

Preheat oven to 180 degC. Sift flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl.
Stir in roughly chopped spinach and grated cheese (1 cup).
Make a well in the middle of the flour and add lightly whisked eggs, milk and melted butter. Mix until just combined.
Half-fill ten muffin cups with mixture and then place 1 tsp of cream cheese and a half slice of salmon on top.
Cover with a blob of muffin mix and sprinkle a little (1/2 cup) grated cheese on top.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until muffins are golden and springy to the touch. Serve warm with a touch of relish.
