Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups (shredded) Green cabbage
- 1 medium (diced) Onion
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Caraway seeds
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 4 tablespoons (melted) Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Shredded Gruyere cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with muffin liners.
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the diced onion for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the shredded cabbage and caraway seeds to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the cabbage is tender and lightly browned. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and black pepper.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and combine them with the milk and melted butter.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the sautéed cabbage mixture and the shredded Gruyere cheese until evenly distributed.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature as a savory snack or side dish.
