MAKES 12 MUFFINS
This recipe is inspired by Katniss’ love for Peeta’s cheddar muffins. Delicious alone, these muffins will also go wonderfully with any of the Hunger Games soups.
These muffins make a delightfully different foundation for a sandwich and pack very well in a brown bag lunch. Fill them with ham, roasted turkey and veggies for a slightly Southwestern sandwich.
2 CUPS WHEAT FLOUR
1 CUP SHREDDED PEPPER JACK CHEESE
¼ CUP SHREDDED SHARP CHEDDAR CHEESE
1½ TABLESPOONS SUGAR
4 TEASPOONS DRIED CHIVES
2 TEASPOONS BAKING POWDER
1½ TEASPOONS GARLIC POWDER
¼ TEASPOON SALT
1 EGG, BEATEN
½ CUP MILK
½ CUP CONDENSED CREAM OF MUSHROOM SOUP
½ CUP CANOLA OIL
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Lightly spray 12 muffin cups or use paper liners.
In a large bowl, combine flour, Pepper Jack cheese, Cheddar cheese, sugar, chives, baking powder, garlic powder and salt.
In another bowl, combine egg, milk, cream of mushroom soup and canola oil and combine well.
Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients until moistened through and spoon batter into the muffin pans.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean (it’s ok if there’s a little cheese stuck to the toothpick).
