Cheese Muffins

These delicious cheese muffins have a slightly sweet flavor and a light texture like a muffin rather than the density of a biscuit.

Cheese Muffins

3 cups flour
7/8 tablespoon Baking Powder
1/3 tablespoon Baking Soda
1/4 tablespoon Salt
3/8 cup Sugar
1 stick unsalted butter
1/2 pound cheddar cheese, shredded
1/4 cup eggs — approximately 1 1/4 eggs
1 cup buttermilk

Sift dry mix. “Cut” butter into dry mix until you can make clump with handful (like a snowball.)
However, when you touch it, it should “crumble” easily.
Add cheese.

Take eggs and buttermilk and mix well. Pour wet into dry and mix by hand. Mix until consistent.

Spoon into muffin pans and bake at 400 degrees for 8 – 10 minutes.

Yield – 20 muffins

NOTE: Do not over work when cutting butter not dry mix – this will result in tough bread.

Leave mix until at room temp. Do not refrigerate and reuse.
