Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter (melted)
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 1.5 cups White cheddar cheese (shredded)
• 0.25 cup Green onions (chopped, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, garlic powder, and dried thyme.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Stir together gently until just combined. Take care not to overmix; the batter should look slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Gently fold in the shredded white cheddar cheese and chopped green onions (if using) until evenly distributed.

Step 6

Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ 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 pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. These muffins pair wonderfully with soups, salads, or simply on their own as a snack!
