Gluten-Free Savory Muffins with Ham and Cheese

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.

2. Mix the Dry Ingredients:

   • In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder (if using).

3. Prepare the Wet Ingredients:

   • In another bowl, beat the eggs. Then add the milk and olive oil (or melted butter) and whisk until combined.

4. Combine Wet and Dry:

   • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter will be thick, and that’s totally fine!

5. Add Ham, Cheese, and Green Onions:

   • Gently fold in the diced ham, shredded cheese, and green onions (if using) until evenly distributed through the batter.

6. Scoop and Bake:

   • Spoon the batter into the muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 of the way full.

   • Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

7. Cool and Serve:

   • Allow the muffins to cool for a few minutes in the pan, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely or enjoy warm!

Tips:

• You can swap the ham for turkey or chicken for a different flavor.

• Feel free to experiment with different cheeses like gouda, Swiss, or Parmesan for added variety.

• These muffins freeze well! Just store them in an airtight container and reheat when you’re ready to enjoy them.

These savory muffins are soft, flavorful, and perfect for anyone following a gluten-free diet. Enjoy them on their own or with a salad for a complete meal!
