- Warm the olive oil in a small skillet over low heat, add the garlic and cook 2 minutes until fragrant and barely golden; stir in the rosemary, then pour into a bowl to cool for 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and black pepper.
- In the bowl with the garlic oil, whisk in the egg, Greek yogurt and milk until smooth.
- Set aside one quarter of the cheddar for the tops. Toss the remaining three quarters of the cheddar, the parsley and the cherry tomatoes into the flour mixture to coat.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry and fold just until no dry flour remains; the batter should be thick and lumpy.
- Divide the batter among the cups and sprinkle the reserved quarter of the cheddar on top.

- Cool in the tin 5 minutes, then move to a rack and cool 10 minutes more before serving warm.
