2ml salt
250ml milk
250ml + 80ml feta cheese, crumbed

Preheat your oven to 190℃.
Line a 12-hole cupcake/muffin tin with paper cups and lightly spray with a cooking spray.
Add the butter and sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat until soft and creamy.
Add the egg to the mixture and beat a few seconds more.
Sift the flour, baking powder and salt together in a bowl.
Add one spoonful of the flour mixture, alternating with the milk until everything is incorporated.
Switch off the mixer, add the 250ml of crumbed feta cheese and mix through with a spatula.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking tin and bake for 25 minutes.
Add the 150g butter and marmite to a small saucepan.
