Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar until well combined.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped chives to the dry ingredients, ensuring they are well distributed.
In another bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, and eggs until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture into it. Gently stir the ingredients together until just combined, being careful not to overmix the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until 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, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days.
