How to Make Garlic Onion Dinner Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 1 cup milk, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1/2 cup finely chopped onion.
  4. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour in the wet ingredients and 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter.
  5. Gently fold the wet and dry ingredients together until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.
  6. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. Fill each liner about 2/3 full with batter.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the muffins are golden brown.
  8. Remove muffins from the oven and let cool slightly in the tin before serving.
