Barbara's Notes + Tips

Try adding cooked bacon or sausage for a great breakfast or brunch option.
Don't over mix the batter or they can get heavy.
These are low carb and gluten free!
Feel free to change out the cheese for what you have on hand. Pepper jack would add a nice kick to go with the cheese.
Chop up chives and add them to the batter for another savory ingredient.
To make a batch for later, bake the muffins as directed. Allow them to cool completely. Place them in an airtight container and they will be good up to 3 months. Reheat them in a toaster oven when you're ready to enjoy one.
