Cheddar Cheese Muffins Tips

Here are my top tips for making the best cheddar cheese muffins:

Use sharp cheddar cheese. This will give your muffins the most flavor.
Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins.
Use freshly grated cheese if possible. Pre-shredded cheese often doesn’t melt as well.
Bake the muffins until they’re golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help them to stay moist and fluffy.
