Leek Muffins
Yields 7 Muffins


Ingredients

Caramelized Leeks:
1 Tbsp. Vegetable Oil
1/2 Onion, diced
1 tsp. Kosher salt, divided
2 cloves Garlic, minced
2 Leeks, white part only, cut into half moons, washed and patted dry
1/2 tsp. ground Black Pepper
1 Tbsp. Honey

Batter:
1/2 C. All-purpose Flour
2 Tbsp. Granulated White Sugar
1 tsp. Baking Powder
1/2 tsp. Kosher Salt
2 Eggs at room temperature
1/4 C. Vegetable Oil
1/4 C. Milk

Method:
Heat the Oil over medium-high heat in a large, deep frying pan.

Add Onions and half of the Salt; stir to combine.

Cook for about 5 minutes, until the Onions have softened.

Add Garlic and stir in as well, cooking until fragrant.

Add Leeks, remaining Salt and the Pepper; stir to combine.

Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, for at least 20 minutes.

The Leek mixture should have a golden brown color.

Stir in Honey, then remove from heat and set aside to cool.

Preheat oven to 350.

Line a muffin pan with paper liners; set aside.

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the Flour, Sugar, Baking Powder, and Salt.

Add in the Eggs, Oil and Milk; whisk to a smooth batter.

Add the cooled Leek mixture and stir in well.

Spoon batter into prepared muffin pans, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.

Bake for about 20 minutes, until the top feels set and firm. Serve warm.
