Description:
These Parmesan Herb Muffins are a delightful addition to any meal, especially when served hot alongside a comforting stew. A handy tip for those without buttermilk or sour milk – fear not! You can easily create a substitute by adding lemon juice (or vinegar, though lemon juice imparts a better flavor) into a measuring cup, then pouring in milk until you reach 1 1/4 cups. Let this mixture rest for 10 minutes at room temperature before incorporating it into the recipe.
