Reviews
“I baked these to use up some yukky bland cheese I had (not cheddar) and they are very very nice!I love the flavour (I used dried basil) and the texture.”
“Mmmmm, these muffins are super tasty! I made them using Recipe #124269 as my choice of herbs/spices and they came out so flavourful and moist with a nice crunch on top. I luv the slightly sweet flavour the corn kernels give and how it pairs with the cheese. Really good! :)Also these are very quick and easy to put together.Thanks so much for sharing this real winner of a recipe with us, Tish! Ill surely make it often again trying other combinations of fresh or dried herbs.”
