Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and black pepper.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, and chopped thyme until evenly distributed throughout the dry mixture.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, and eggs until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix until just combinedβbe careful not to overmix, as this can make the muffins tough.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. These muffins pair beautifully with soups, salads, or your favorite savory spreads.
