Ingredients

• 0.5 pound Ground beef
• 0.25 cup Yellow onion, finely chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 1 large Egg
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons Ketchup
• 1 teaspoon Mustard
• 2 tablespoons Pickles, finely chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 24-cup mini muffin tin or line it with mini muffin liners.

Step 2

In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and chopped onion until the beef is browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.

Step 3

Season the cooked beef mixture with salt and black pepper. Stir in ketchup, mustard, and chopped pickles (if using). Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder. In a separate bowl, whisk the milk and egg until combined.

Step 5

Pour the milk and egg mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Fold the shredded cheddar cheese and the cooled beef mixture into the batter. Stir until evenly distributed.

Step 7

Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, divide the batter evenly among the mini muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 8

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

Step 9

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

Step 10

Serve warm with a side of ketchup or mustard for dipping, or enjoy them on their own!
