Ingredients

cooking spray
1 cup white sugar
4 tablespoons melted butter
3/4 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 tablespoon white vinegar
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 large egg
3/4 cup milk
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray.
2 Whisk sugar and butter together until sugar is mostly dissolved. Stir in baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add vinegar. Pour in flour slowly; make a small indent in the flour. Crack egg into the indent. Mix batter slightly and gradually pour in milk, mixing until just combined. Fold in Cheddar cheese.
3 Spoon batter into the muffin cups until 3/4 full.
4 Bake in the center of the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
