If you are looking for a savory homemade muffin to try, here is a great recipe I found several years ago.  In our home, we have always called them “food muffins.”  They go well with any Italian food or even as a stand-alone.  Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS

    • 2 Cups all-purpose flour
    • 2 tsp baking powder
    • 1/4 tsp dill weed
    • 1/4 tsp dried thyme
    • 1/2 tsp baking soda
    • 1/2 tsp salt
    • 1/2 tsp pepper
    • 1 egg
    • 1 1/4 cup milk
    • 1/4 cup olive oil
    • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
    • 1/2 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped

INSTRUCTIONS

    • In a large bowl, mix the first 7 ingredients.
    • In another bowl, whisk together egg, milk, & olive oil.
    • Add flour mixture; stir just until mixture is moistened.
    • Fold in cheddar cheese and sun-dried tomatoes.
    • Fill greased muffin cups 3/4 full.
    • Bake at 375degrees for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
    • Cool for 5 minutes on a wire rack and serve warm.

Depending on preferences, I could see adding bacon and/or olives as well.

I’d love to hear how they turned out or any upgrades you made!  Enjoy!
