These savory muffins combine the goodness of broccoli and cheese into a delightful snack or breakfast option.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Always preheat your oven to ensure even baking.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder.
Sifting the flour and baking powder can help avoid lumps.
Add the eggs, milk, and melted butter to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Do not overmix to keep the muffins tender.
Fold in the chopped broccoli, shredded cheddar cheese, and scallions.
Ensure the broccoli is evenly distributed for consistent flavor.
Grease a muffin tin and divide the batter evenly among the cups.
Use a scoop for even portions.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Check the muffins a few minutes before the end of baking time to avoid overcooking.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cooling on a rack prevents sogginess.
