Ingredients
All-purpose flour
2 cups (Sifted after measuring)
Baking powder
1 tablespoon
Salt
1 teaspoon
Garlic powder
1 tablespoon
Cold butter
1/2 cup (Cut into small pieces)
Grated cheese
2 cups (Your choice of cheese; cheddar is recommended)
Milk
1 cup (Plus a little extra as needed)
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin with butter or use non-stick cooking spray.
2
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder until well combined.
3
Using a pastry cutter or two knives, cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse cornmeal.
4
Fold in the grated cheese until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
5
Pour in 1 cup of milk and stir until just combined. The batter should be somewhat wet; if it feels too dry, gradually add a little more milk until the desired moisture is reached.
6
Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, drop the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full to allow room for rising.
7
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 17 to 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8
Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, then transfer muffins to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.
