You will need the bowl to make the dough for the savory cupcakes (or the savory pie). Put the flour, the butter cut into pieces, a pinch of salt, 1 egg and to start with 2 tablespoons of cold water.
Mix this with your hands or a special dough attachment. If the dough is too dry, add 1 tablespoon of cold water. The dough should be malleable, flexible and feel like cookie dough.
Place the dough wrapped in foil in the fridge for half an hour before making the cupcakes. The cold will stiffen the dough and make it easier to roll out and process the dough. You can also skip this step if it is not really hot in your kitchen.
While the dough is resting, you can make the filling at your leisure.
If you use frozen (soup) vegetables, rinse them in a colander under cold water
Beat the eggs together with the milk and season with salt, pepper and possibly paprika (you can also experiment here)
Add the grated cheese and mix well
Remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll out with a rolling pin
Cut out circles using a glass. Make sure that the diameter of the glass is larger than the cupcake molds, so that you still have a raised edge
Place the dough pieces in the cupcake molds, poke some holes in the bottom with the fork
More than 1 tablespoon of (soup) vegetables goes into each mold
Pour 2 tablespoons of the egg/cheese mixture over this. Stirring in between helps to evenly distribute the whole
Place the cupcakes/springform pan in a preheated oven at 200˚C. It takes about 20 -25 minutes until the cupcakes are golden brown. To make a savory pie, you can count on a baking time of about 45 minutes.
For the filling I have indicated a base. You can of course add to/adjust these to your own taste and wishes. Think, for example, of adding pieces of bacon, using leftovers, seasonal vegetables, etc. This is the great thing about making a savory cake/savory cupcakes:you can have fun with it.
