Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1 cup Cooked ham, diced
• 2 tablespoons Green onions, finely sliced
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 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 paper liners, or grease the cups lightly with nonstick spray.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, diced ham, and sliced green onions, making sure the ingredients are evenly coated in the flour mixture.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and melted butter until well emulsified.

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and gently fold them together using a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix until just combined; avoid overmixing to prevent dense muffins.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. These muffins can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 1 month.
