Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup cooked salmon, flaked skin and bones removed
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup whole milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 0.25 cup chopped fresh dill
  • 0.25 cup grated cheddar cheese optional

Method
 

Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
  3. In another bowl, whisk the egg, milk, and melted butter until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the flaked salmon, dill, and cheddar cheese (if using).
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  7. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the tops are golden brown.
  8. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a toaster oven for best texture. These muffins also freeze well for up to 2 months.
