Blue Cheese Muffins
side dishes
POINTS® Value: 3
Servings: 12
Preparation Time: 12 min
Cooking Time: 25 min
Level of Difficulty: Easy
Muffin Week kicks off with this cheesy number. Not a fan of blue cheese? Try shredded parmesan, provolone, gruyere or extra-sharp cheddar instead.
* 2 sprays cooking spray
* 2 cup all-purpose flour, unbleached
* 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
* 1/2 tsp table salt
* 1 tsp paprika
* 2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
* 1 large egg(s), beaten
* 1 cup fat-free skim milk
* 5 oz blue cheese, crumbled or extra-sharp cheddar, shredded (see note in introduction above)
Instructions
* Preheat oven to 375ºF and coat a 12-hole muffin tin with cooking spray or line with muffin liners. In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and paprika.
* Create a well in flour mixture with a spoon and place butter, egg and milk into well; mix until just blended. (Do not beat until smooth.)
* Fill each muffin hole with a tablespoon of batter (you’ll have about 1/2 the batter left). Divide cheese evenly over center of each muffin, saving just enough cheese for a sparse topping. Continue filling muffin holes with batter so each is about 2/3 to 3/4 full; sprinkle muffins with remaining cheese.
* Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of a muffin comes out clean, about 25 minutes; serve warm. Yields 1 muffin per serving.
