- Begin by sifting the flour into a large bowl, then measure and sift in the baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- In a separate bowl, combine the milk, popped corn, eggs, and melted butter, mixing until well incorporated.
- Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, and finely chopped fresh chives, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Grease the muffin tins generously with oil to prevent sticking, then fill each tin approximately 2/3 full with the prepared batter.
- Preheat your oven to 435°F (223°C), and once ready, place the filled muffin tins inside.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the muffins have risen, turned golden brown on top, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked to perfection, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
