Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with baking liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and garlic powder.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and melted butter until fully combined.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
Fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each 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 to a wire rack.
If desired, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for a touch of freshness and color before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy the cheesy, garlicky goodness of these muffins!
