    Claire, I have made a version of cheddar cheese muffins before! We made them at Boy Scout camp (well, with our Venture Crew post back about 10 years ago now) and baked them inside a Dutch oven. They were delicious so I can imagine these are wonderful, too! Very happy to have featured them at this past week’s Share Your Style for you. <3

    Hope your spring is just beautiful,
    Hugs,
    Barb.
