Ingredients
- 375 grams bleached all-purpose flour
- 5 mL Diamond Crystal fine kosher salt
- 5 mL freshly ground black pepper
- 15 mL baking powder
- 1.25 mL baking soda
- 15 mL granulated sugar
- 125 grams Maple Leaf Canadian Craft Montreal Steak Spice Capicollo 1 package, chopped into small pieces
- 100 grams pimento olives feel free to use shredded cheese instead, if you prefer, sliced
- 4 large egg(s)
- 188 ml whole milk (3.25 % fat)
- 188 ml sour cream (14% fat)
- 115 grams unsalted butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 °F (190 °C). Line two muffin pans with 12 parchment liners (like these on Amazon). You can use regular muffin papers too, but you would need to spray them lightly with oil baking spray otherwise the muffins will stick to the paper. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, pepper, baking powder, baking soda, and granulated sugar. When the dry ingredients are well mixed, stir in the Maple Leaf Canadian Craft Montreal Steak Spice Capicollo and the olives (or cheese).
- Meanwhile in a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and sour cream until smooth. Pour this mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients, along with the melted butter. Stir with a wooden spoon to combine (about 20–25 stirs—don't overmix!).
- Divide the muffin batter between the prepared pans. Bake in the preheated oven on the middle rack for 20–25 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the middle of a muffin comes out clean.
Notes
- This recipe calls for Diamond Crystal fine Kosher salt. If using regular table salt, add half the amount or the recipe may be too salty!
