I'm changing things up a bit for this month's #MuffinMonday and sharing a savory muffin. I was bored with our regular sides for pasta so I went searching the Taste of Home site and found Cyndee P's Italian Herb Muffins.
I made absolutely no changes to the recipe. Just as a public service announcement, there are many levels to parmesan cheese. The best is the real deal which you grate yourself, second is the preshredded kind. Avoid the green canister!
These disappeared in a flash, next time I'll double the recipe. Crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside. I liked the garlic butter a lot, next time I think I'd use real minced garlic instead of the powdered kind.

ReplyDeleteHerbs plus cheese - always a winning combination.
ReplyDeleteThese sound amazing! I love savory muffins and these would go perfect with a bowl of soup! Herbs and cheese are always the best combo and these make this muffin the very best!
