Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces English muffins
- 1 cup Black olives
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the English muffins in half horizontally so you have 8 halves in total. Arrange them cut side up on the prepared baking sheet.
Finely chop the black olives and place them in a mixing bowl.
Grate the cheddar cheese and add it to the same bowl as the olives.
Add the cream cheese, mayonnaise, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix everything thoroughly until it forms a spreadable mixture.
Evenly spread the olive-cheese mixture onto the cut sides of the English muffin halves.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges of the English muffins are golden brown and the cheese topping is bubbly.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the melts cool for 2 minutes before serving.
Serve the melts warm as a quick snack or light meal!
