Dill Pickle Relish Cheese Muffins Recipes

DILL PICKLE MACARONI AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish with cooking spray.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 7 minutes, making sure not to overcook. Drain and set aside.
• While the macaroni is cooking, melt 3 tablespoons butter over medium-low heat in a large saucepan. Blend in flour and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture becomes paste-like and light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Gradually whisk in milk and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook and stir until thickened, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Mix in Cheddar cheese and Monterey Jack cheese; stir until melted. Add dill pickle relish, onion, Sriracha sauce, salt, and pepper to cheese mixture. Stir in cooked macaroni. Pour mixture into the prepared casserole dish.
• Butter both sides of bread and tear into large pieces. Blend in a food processor or electric blender until you have crumbs. Spread on top of casserole.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and browned on top, about 45 minutes.

TANGY DILL PICKLE RELISH

Steps:

• Finely chop cucumbers and onions. Place in a large bowl and sprinkle with salt, stir well. Let stand for 1 hour.
• Drain mixture in a colander, rinse under cold water and drain again, pressing out any excess moisture.
• In a large pot, bring vinegar, sugar, garlic, dill seed, mustard seed, celery seed to a boil.
• Add cucumber mixture, bring to a boil again, stirring frequently. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. After 9 minutes, mix the cornstarch with a bit of the simmering juice until no lumps remain. Add to the relish and mix well until thickened.
• Remove from heat, add the turmeric and mix well.
• Pour into sterilized jars, leaving 1/2 inch head space. Seal with lids and rings. Process in boiling water bath in canner for 10 minutes.

DILL AND CHEDDAR MUFFINS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first six ingredients. Combine the milk, eggs and butter; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full. , Bake at 400° for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Serve warm.

MINI PICKLE BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, pepper, baking powder, and baking soda, 30 seconds. Toss butter into mixture to evenly coat, then press between your fingers to create flower-petal shapes.
• Stir together buttermilk and relish; slowly pour over flour-butter mixture, stirring with a fork, until a crumbly dough forms. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Gather dough with your hands, pressing firmly to bind, and flatten into a 6-by- 10-inch rectangle. Lift parchment along a short end of dough and fold in half, forming a 6-by-5-inch rectangle. Turn dough 90 degrees; gently reflatten to 6 by 10 inches. Fold in half again and flatten slightly into an 8-inch square.
• Cut dough into fourths in both directions with a large, sharp knife to form 16 square biscuits. Brush tops with buttermilk. Bake until puffed, golden brown on top, and hollow-sounding when tapped on bottoms, 16 to 18 minutes. Transfer to a kitchen towel-lined basket; cover to keep warm.

DILL PICKLE RELISH CHEESE MUFFINS

Steps:

• 1. Mix these muffins by hand. To double, like I did, only use 1 egg. But if you are going to omit the relish, try adding a second egg to make up for the difference.
• 2. Put cheese on top of bisquick in a bowl. Sprinkle seasonings on top, and mix to blend. Put liquid ingredients together separately, then pour into the bisquick mix and mix just until blended. Put into the silicone muffin cups (or you could use paper muffin cups in a muffin tin, but the silicone makes them just pop right out very easily so that is how I make them). Bake at 350 degrees 20-25 min, but check after about 18 min.
• 3. If you want to use mini muffin pans, bake about 12 min, but could take longer.
• 4. I really like these warm, split in half from top to bottom, and then with a tad bit of butter on each piece.
• 5. I was thinking this would be good in corn bread mix, instead of using the bisquick!
