Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 190°C/170°fan/Gas 5. Line a muffin tin with nine paper cases.
2
Put the flour, polenta and baking powder in a bowl. Season lightly and make a well in the centre. Pour in the eggs, milk and oil and mix carefully to form a thick batter. Stir in the cheese, olives and tomatoes.

Divide the mixture between the paper cases (they will be quite full), sprinkle with a few seeds and bake for about 30 minutes, until risen and lightly golden. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Eat warm or cold with a green salad if you like.
