Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup diced ham
- 1 cup milk
- 2 units large eggs
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with muffin liners or grease it lightly.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and diced ham, ensuring they're evenly distributed in the dry mixture.
Step 4
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter until well combined.
Step 5
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and gently fold with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 7
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 8
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely or enjoy warm.
