This recipe couldn't be easier and it's very tasty too. I would say it was more like a scone than a muffin, but either way my 8 year old can't get enough of them. Next time I will add more ham than called for though, probably double the ham. My muffins were completely cooked in 15 minutes, but my stove is brand new and may bake a little on the hot side. I added shredded cheddar on top and kept 1/2 out to eat right away and froze the other 1/2 individually in tinfoil. I just unwrapped them and popped them in the microwave for 1 minute and they were a great breakfast on the go! I love this recipe and will be making this one again! Thanks! :)

I found that it tasted salting, and I could taste the baking soda. I didn't have self-rising flour so I used the Note. May have been better if using the self rising.

This is pretty good but like others, I think some tweaking is in order. I didn't have self rising flour so used the substitute suggestion for that and it is a bit salty. I would cut it at least in half or leave the salt out. Ham is pretty salty and then the baking soda is "salty" too. I used whole wheat flour and had to add a bit more milk because the dough was kinda dry. It came out nicely moist by doing that. Just use your judgement. I will also double the ham and cheese as these are to substitute the boring sandwiches the kids are complaining about. Otherwise, I think this is a good recipe that can be easily adjusted to ones taste.

Thanks! I did this with Grands flakey layers. Peeled apart and filled with ham cheese and 1/2tsp of Olive oil mayo. Perfect size for my 5 yr olds lunch.
