MAKE AHEAD MUFFIN MELTS



Make Ahead Muffin Melts image

From The Pioneer Woman: "Serve these to the people you love (that can include yourself, if applicable) when they're on their way out the door. The Dijon absolutely makes these little numbers, but you can switch up the kind of cheese you use...and if you need a little spice in your life, throw in some cayenne pepper! They'll start your day off just right. Enjoy these! They're yummy."

  • If you don't have fresh pineapple, you can use canned pineapple. Be sure to drain the pineapple well before using it.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the pineapple. This will help to prevent the pineapple from tearing.
  • If you don't have muffin tins, you can use a regular baking dish. Just be sure to grease the baking dish before adding the muffin batter.
  • Bake the muffins until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Pineapple and cheese muffin melts are delicious and easy-to-make snacks or breakfast treats. They are perfect for parties or potlucks.
