Tips for Perfect Cheddar and Herb Stuffin' Muffins
- Fresh is Best: For optimal flavor, use fresh herbs and vegetables whenever possible.
- Season Well: Don't be afraid to add plenty of seasoning to the stuffing. This will help to enhance the flavor of all the ingredients.
- Don't Overmix: Be gentle when mixing the stuffing ingredients. Overmixing can make the muffins tough.
- Fill the Muffin Tins Generously: Don't be shy about filling the muffin tins. The muffins will rise while baking, so you want to make sure they have enough room to expand.
- Bake Until Golden Brown: Bake the muffins until they are golden brown on top. This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a delicious crust.
