Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups thoroughly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and dried dill weed until well combined.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese to the dry mixture and gently toss to coat the cheese evenly in the flour mixture.
In a separate smaller mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, and egg until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmixβthe batter will be slightly lumpy, and thatβs okay.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely or serve warm.
