Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
- 1 cup Cooked ham (diced)
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 0.25 cup Green onions (chopped)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter until fully blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients, and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Fold in the diced ham, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 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.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave if desired.
