Garlic Muffins


These tasty muffins are great with soups and stews. They are quick and easy to make when you want a nice side bread with dinner.


Ingredients:
2 cups all purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk
1/4 cup melted butter
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 medium onion, diced

Topping
1/2 stick butter, melted
1/4 tsp garlic salt


Directions:

Heat oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. In a small bowl, mix together egg, milk, garlic and onion. Make a well in the center of dry ingredients and pour in the egg mixture and melted butter. Mix together using as few strokes as possible. The batter should have small lumps in it. Pour into 12 muffins tins coated with cooking spray, filling about 2/3 full. Bake 20 minutes or until muffins begin to turn golden on top. Test for doneness with a toothpick, which should come out clean. Remove from tins and cool slightly. Brush garlic butter over biscuits while hot.
