Ham Breakfast Muffins

Ham Breakfast Muffins

(9 servings)    Printable Version
  • 1 box cornbread muffin mix
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 Tablespoon oil or melted and cooled butter
  • 3 Tablespoons green onions - chopped
  • 1 cup cooked chopped ham or 1 can Hormel cooked ham
  • 1/8 teaspoon dry mustard
These were very easy to make. I used an 8.5 ounce box of Jiffy Corn Bread mix. For me, it made 8 decent sized muffins. Eaten alone, these muffins are just okay. If you have them as a side dish with eggs or make a crumbly breakfast sandwich with them, they become more special. For kicks, I added about 1/3 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese to mix. I also used regular chopped onion instead of green onion. Bottom Line: They were okay. Not the greatest. For a better muffin tin breakfast experience, I recommend trying Spinach And Cheddar Muffin Frittatas, Scrambled Egg Muffins or Bacon Breakfast Cups. (The recipe on this page was submitted in 2007. It was tested and photographed in November 2014.)

Cooking Notes:

If you find your savory muffins are browning too fast, cover the muffin tin loosely with aluminum foil and continue baking until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

For variation, you could replace the ham in this recipe with 1 cup of cooked and crumbed sausage or 10 strips of cooked and crumbled bacon.

The muffins seen here took exactly 18 minutes to bake.

Great! I also added 3/4 c shredded cheddar cheese. My teenage daughter prefers hearty savory breakfast like this over anything sweet.

Sounds pretty good. Does the ham go into the muffin mix?
