Recipe Introduction

Serving: 20 Prep Time: 7 minutes minutes Cook Time: 13 minutes Total Time: 20 minutes

List of Ingredients

Cooking oil spray
1 ½ cups frozen broccoli cuts (pieces)
1 large egg
1/3 cup skim or low-fat milk
½ cup finely shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 package (8 ½ ounces) corn muffin mix






Recipe

1. The oven should be already heated to 400 degrees. Spray two 12-cup mini-muffin tins well with cooking oil spray.

2. Place the broccoli in a 2-cup glass measure and microwave, uncovered, on high, for 2 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, break the egg into a 2-quart bowl and beat with a whisk or fork to break it up. Add the milk and beat well to blend. Stir in the cheese. Stir in the muffin mix just until the dry ingredients are moistened.

4. Remove the broccoli from the microwave and press out any excess water. Finely chop the broccoli and add it to the batter. Using a tablespoon or a cookie-dough scoop, fill the prepared muffin cups about two-thirds full. When the batter is used up, fill the unused cups halfway with water, to prevent burning.

5. Bake in the middle of the oven until the muffins just begin to brown around the edges and spring back when touched, 12 to 14 minutes. Serve warm.
