HAM AND CHEESE BUTTERMILK MUFFINS
Original recipe from the 9/17/08 News Sentinel; posted here for safekeeping with my "healthy" adjustments. Update: Just made these and my are they good! They puff up to become quite large, and they make for a hearty, filling breakfast with some fresh fruit or sliced tomatoes. I imagine you could use other cheeses, veggies, or meats (sausage, bacon?) to make your perfect muffin, too!

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh buttermilk, sharp cheddar cheese, and julienned ham will result in the most flavorful muffins.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fill the muffin cups to the top: This will help the muffins rise evenly and prevent them from becoming dry.
- Bake the muffins at a moderate temperature: 375 degrees Fahrenheit is ideal. This will help them cook evenly without burning.
- Let the muffins cool slightly before serving: This will help them hold their shape.
