Cheesse muffins
Any time is snack time and these very easy to make cheese muffins are musts to have around the house. Pop one or two into lunch boxes for the kids, take a few to work and have them with cream cheese, add more cheese and perhaps some ham, these are great.
They freeze very well and thaw in a short space of time, so make a batch or two this weekend. All week you will have a smile on your face 🙂
Add a handfull of fresh herbs for a difference or a 1/2 teaspoon of paprika for a little something different. (Makes 12 muffins)
What you need
1 1/2 cups plain flour
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder, yes tablespoon
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups grated cheddar cheese
1 cup milk
1 large egg
1/4 cup melted butter
The process
Heat your oven to 190 Celsius and lightly butter a muffin tray. If you have cookie cups, insert a cookie cup into each space.
In a large bowl, add all of the dry ingredients. Flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
In another bowl, add the egg and milk and whisk together well. Now add the melted butter and whisk to combine.
Add the egg mixture along with the cheese to the dry ingredients and stir together with a metal spoon until well combined.
Spoon the mixture equally into the 12 spaces and bake for 20 to 25 minutes.
Remove and allow to cool a little before digging in.

Hi Graham,
I have always wanted to make the perfect muffins, when I came across your recipe, I was a little reluctant, but tried it anyway…… I was totally amazed. It is simple enough for a working mom like me and they always turn out “PERFECT” . Thanks to you my family now enjoys the light fluffy muffins.

Almost 7 years later and I still come back to this recipe! Thanks again!
Wow has it been that long 🙂 Thank you so much for all of your time 🙂
Good day,
Will adding 1Tbsp of baking powder not give the cheese muffins a “strange” after taste? I sometimes find one has a powdery taste left in your mouth when too much baking powder is used. Yes? No?
Thank you
Hi Dalene, I have not found any problem with the BP, they are very tasty. Enjoy G
Thank you Graham. I will try these out tonight.
Hi Dalene, let us know how they worked out. Cheers G
