Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1.5 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.25 cup Chives, finely chopped
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 units Eggs, large
- 1 cup Milk
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups with butter.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped chives until evenly distributed throughout the dry ingredients.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, and milk until well combined.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Gently fold the mixture together until just combined; do not overmix.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Cheesy Chive Muffins as a snack, side dish, or breakfast option!
