Garlic-Onion Dinner Muffins

Barb Gertz's Note:

This muffin makes a perfect bread accompaniment for steaks and roast. The recipe comes from " A taste of Cuba" and was sent to me.

• Total Time: 35 mins
• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 25 mins

Ingredients:

Yield: 12 Muffins

• 2 cups flour
• 3 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 egg , beaten
• 1 cup milk
• ¼ cup melted butter
• 2 garlic cloves , minced
• 1 medium onion , diced

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 400°F.
2. In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
3. In a small bowl, mix together egg, milk, garlic and onion.
4. Make a well in the center of dry ingredients and pour in the egg mixture and melted butter.
5. Mix together using as few strokes as possible.
6. DO NOT OVER BEAT--the batter should have small lumps in it.
7. Pour into 12 paper-lined muffins tins, filling about 2/3 full.
8. Bake 20 minutes or until muffins begin to turn golden on top.
9. Test for doneness with a toothpick which should come out clean.

I have made these twice in the last 2 weeks to accompany dinner. Very tasty and easy to put together. I added extra garlic and used green onion. Just the right amount of sweet and savoury. Thanks for the recipe. Catherine

What luscious muffins!!!! And very,very easy to make. I used green onions -- probably 12 or 13 of them (and included some of the green part). In addition to the two cloves of garlic, I also added in 1/4 t. garlic powder -- and I added about 1/2 c. grated parm. These were moist and light. Thank you for sharing your recipe.

Yum, these were wonderful. I added a heaping tablespoon of mayo to the batter and they were moist and delicious! Thanks!
