This is the best cheese & dill muffin recipe I have ever made. I will add more dill next time, but they were still excellent. They are wonderful for breakfast or with soup/salad for lunch..

These muffins were really, really yummy! They had a great dilly taste and the cheese went great with that! The inside was very moist and soft and the top super crunchy. Mmmm! I think next time Ill leave out the sugar or reduce it as I found it too sweet as is. But apart from that I wouldnt change a thing about your wonderful recipe! THANKS SO MUCH for sharing it with us, Chris! P.S.: I made normal sized muffins and ended up with double what you stated for the large ones.
