Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.25 cups unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup diced ham
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cups chopped green onions
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and melted butter until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter may be slightly lumpy.
Add the diced ham, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions to the batter. Fold them in until evenly distributed.
Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each 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 of one comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
