How to Make Auberge Cheddar Cheese And Ham Breakfast Buns Muffins
- Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F/Gas Mark 6).
- Grease a 12-hole muffin tin.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Stir in 1 cup shredded mature cheddar cheese, ½ cup diced smoked ham, and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives (optional).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, ½ cup milk, and 2 tablespoons olive oil.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- If the batter is too dry, add a tablespoon of milk at a time until it reaches a soft, dropping consistency.
- Fill each muffin cup about ¾ full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool slightly in the tin before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve warm, spread with butter, herb garlic cheese, or smoked salmon butter (for a luxurious Christmas treat!).
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
