Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350&# 194;°F (175ðC) and grease mini muffin pans with cooking spray or butter.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the biscuit mix, shredded cheddar cheese, poppy seeds, and red pepper.
-
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
-
In a separate small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the beaten egg and milk until smooth.
-
Pour the egg and milk mixture into the well in the dry ingredients.
-
Stir gently with a fork or spatula just until the dry ingredients are moistened; do not overmix.
-
Spoon the batter into the prepared mini muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
-
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove muffins from the pans immediately to prevent sticking and place on wire racks to cool slightly.
-
Serve warm or at room temperature.
