Ham Muffinwiches

Name: Ham Muffinwiches
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 15 min
Total time: 30 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 large egg, lightly beaten, room temperature; 1/3 cup 2% milk; 1 tablespoon canola oil; 1/8 teaspoon ground mustard; 1 package (8-1/2 ounces) cornbread/muffin mix; 1 cup chopped fully cooked ham; 2 green onions, thinly sliced; 2 tablespoons shredded cheddar cheese

I concocted this fun recipe when looking for something to pack for lunch. I had leftover ham but no bread, so I got creative with cornbread mix. They freeze well and are handy for an on-the-go breakfast or lunch. —Jenny Wiebe, Villa Hills, Kentucky

Ingredients

1 large egg, lightly beaten, room temperature
1/3 cup 2% milk
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/8 teaspoon ground mustard
1 package (8-1/2 ounces) cornbread/muffin mix
1 cup chopped fully cooked ham
2 green onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons shredded cheddar cheese

Directions

Preheat oven to 400°. Whisk together first four ingredients. Add muffin mix; stir just until moistened. Fold in ham and green onions. Fill eight greased or paper-lined muffin cups half full.
Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 15-20 minutes. Immediately sprinkle with cheese. Cool 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Serve warm.

Very tasty. I added the cheese right to the batter. I am going to try these with pre-cooked breakfast sausage or crumbled bacon.

This brought a smile to my face when I saw this recipe as my kids grew up on this recipe. I liked serving it with tomato soup Besides using a muffin tin, this can easily be made in a 9 x 9 pan. I also used prepared mustard instead of the dried mustard. I love the extra kick it gives.

Easy breakfast food for my family on the go. Next time, I will add the cheese right to the batter.
