To make these super savory ham and cheese muffins, preheat your oven to 375°F and coat a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray. In a medium bowl, whisk together whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pepper. Then beat eggs, buttermilk (or Cabot Lowfat Plain Greek Yogurt), and canola oil (or avocado oil) in a medium bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir to moisten. Then add 1 ½ cups shredded Cabot Seriously Sharp Cheddar (or Extra Sharp) and ham, stirring to combine.

Spoon muffin batter into prepared muffin pans, top with remaining ½ cup of cheese, and bake for approximately 22 to 24 minutes. You’ll know they’re done when they spring back after being lightly touched and a wooden skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
