Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1.5 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.75 cup whole milk
• 0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 whole large eggs
• 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well with butter.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt until evenly combined.

Step 3

Add the shredded sharp cheddar cheese to the dry ingredients and mix until the cheese is evenly coated with the flour mixture. This helps prevent clumping.

Step 4

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, Greek yogurt, honey, Dijon mustard, eggs, and melted butter until smooth and well combined.

Step 5

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Step 6

Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin tins, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. These muffins are great on their own or paired with soup, chili, or salad.
