Ingredients
  

  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 2/3 cup Vidalia onion, about 1/2 large onion, diced or finely chopped
  • 3/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, sharp
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons chopped chives, optional
  • Melted butter, optional

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 400 F.
  • Grease and flour a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with cupcake papers.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the egg, vegetable oil, and milk; whisk to blend thoroughly. In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, onion powder, oats, and sugar; stir to blend. Stir the dry ingredients into the egg and milk mixture just until blended.
  • Gently fold the chopped Vidalia onion, shredded cheese, and chives (if using) into the batter.
  • Spoon the Vidalia onion batter into the muffin tin, filling each one about 2/3 full. Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for about 15 to 20 minutes, until golden brown.
