1 cup milk
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon crushed thyme
1/4 teaspoon crushed sage
1/2 teaspoon crushed basil
1 cup unbleached flour
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
Combine seasonings with milk and eggs; add flour and
cheese; mix until just blended. Pour into well oiled
muffin tins, filling 2/3 full. Do not preheat oven. Place
muffin tin in oven, and heat to 450 F. Bake 30 minutes, no
