Spicy Broccoli and Cheese Muffins

Connie Veneracion
Creamy cheese, subtle heat from the chilis AND a light sweetness that brings the heat and creaminess together even more wonderfully. Add to that the surprising texture and flavor of the broccoli florets and you have one heck of a muffin. So good, you’ll want to eat more than one with your morning coffee. In fact, my daughter, Sam, looked disappointed that there were only six of them. She preferred twice as many.

Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup butter
  • ½ cup broccoli florets
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 bird’s eye chilies
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 3 tablespoons sugar

Instructions
 

  • Heat the butter in a frying pan. Saute the broccoli and chilies with the salt for about half a minute. Cool.

  • Line six holes of a muffin pan with paper cups.
  • Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and sugar in a mixing bowl.
  • In another bowl, beat the cream and egg just until combined. Stir in the cooled broccoli with the melted butter.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir just until moistened, about ten strokes. DO NOT OVERMIX.

  • Using an ice cream scoop, drop into the prepared pan.
