Ingredients
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 cup whole milk
⅓ cup olive oil
1 large egg
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
¼ cup Parmesan cheese, shredded (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly with oil.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, olive oil, and egg until smooth.
4. Add wet ingredients into the dry and gently fold with a spatula until just combined. Do not over-mix.
5. Fold in chopped rosemary and optional Parmesan cheese.
6. Fill muffin cups evenly with batter using a spoon or scoop.
7. Top each muffin with a few rosemary leaves and an optional sprinkle of Parmesan.
8. Bake for 18–20 minutes or until golden on top and a toothpick comes out clean.
9. Let muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Don’t over-mix the batter — stir just until combined for fluffy muffins.
Fresh rosemary gives the best flavor, but dried can work in a pinch (use less).
To reheat, pop muffins in the toaster oven for a few minutes to restore the crisp tops.
