There are few things in this world my husband loves more than ham. Me, our baby, his mama. And I think that’s it. Way back at Easter he asked me to cook a ham for his mother’s visit to town. It was going to be just the three of us so I knew I would be left with massive amounts of ham.Â
Boy, was I right. I sent some home with my mother-in-law, I made a quiche, I made a pizza and I made cheesy ham muffins. And I STILL had ham left over. Thank goodness for our deep freezer.Â
I think of all the things I made the cheesy ham muffins were the biggest hit. Paired with some roasted green beans and a fresh fruit salad and we had ourselves a meal!

ok first ones out of oven. and tasted. too sweet for me but I can see how others would like em. the muffin part tastes kinda like pancakes.
I am giving it a try, I am a little leery because to me ham and cheese should be savory, and that is a lot of sugar and vanilla. fingers crossed
These look DELISH! Can’t wait to try them. Thanks, Lydia!
