I love these! I add a tablespoon of brown sugar in addition to the honey. Taste great and also freeze well.
Love this recipe!
These are so yummy! I used almond milk and Chao shreds to make them dairy-free and added chives and chili powder. Due to celiac disease, I used King Arthur Measure For Measure. A keeper! Thank you.
Added freeze dried chives white cheddar & Cajun seasoning – Perfection!
These turned out very light and delicious! I only had shredded Parmesan cheese and it paired wonderfully! Next, I will try some Monterey Jack cheese with sautéed red onion! Great basic recipe that can be changed up many ways. Thank you for sharing!
Loved them. I did go one cup white onion and one cup green tomatoes. My husband really liked them too. I’ll make this again.
I made these today. They were amazing. I served them with a bourbon bacon jam…over the top
I trued them last year and they are good . I got to thinking of them tonight and went out to my garden and got myself some green tomatoes so tomorrow morning I’m going to mack some. And I’m going to add a little veg flakes and icsgarlic this time. They are very good
I baked these up. Added more honey. I think 400 is too high. Try 350 because mine were done in 15 minutes at 400.
They were really good.
Great idea!
These look so interesting!! But it’s only January 4. Can hardly wait for another year’s garden. Hope it’s good so I can try this.
these are just yummy, I added some herbs and half an onion (finely chopped and lightly fried) to perfect them.
Wonderful!!
I made these using half whole wheat flour and half white flour. They are so yummy. They remind me of baking powder biscuits, but with way less work. I love them!!
I made these last night, I thought they were good, I did put some chopped green onions in them, I thought they needed some herbs or spices. Next time I will try by adding diced green chilies or pickled jalapenos for some kick.
Overall, this is a keeper.
I am glad that there are more recipes than fried green tomatoes or green tomato pie.
I couldn’t get enough of these muffins! They are fabulous.
I cannot wait to try these. Thanks for another idea for green tomatoes!
Thank you so much for this wonderful recipe, love them. And I am going to freeze my 2 cups of chopped green tomatoes, and have them ready for whenever I desire these wonderful muffins. And can tell you now it will be often. Simply wonderful, my family members were crazy about them!!
Thank you so much Sheila! That makes me so happy that you and your family enjoy this recipe. Thank you for letting me know.
I really want to make these…..
I WOULD LOVE TO MAKE THESE BUT THERE WOULD BE QUITE A FEW LEFT OVER. WOULD THEY FREEZE WELL, DO YOU THINK? THERE ARE ONLY THREE OF US, MY TWO CHILDREN & MYSELF & I WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO FREEZE SOME FOR ANOTHER TIME. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING THROUGH ALL YOUR RECIPES THIS MORNING AND I LOVE EVERYTHING I SEE! THANK YOU FOR SHARING.
Yes, I think they should freeze fine, Paula, but I have not tried it.
I made double batch last year so I could freeze some. They freeze great! I will be making today with green tomatoes I picked from Fall cleanup. Awesome recipe …a keeper for years to come!
I was looking for something other than Fried Green Tomato recipes and came across this one. DELISH!! We enjoyed them plain and then tried a lil honey butter and that was good too! Thanks for sharing!
I HAVE SOME GREEN TOMATOES IN THE FREEZER I AN GOING TO THAW THEM OUT AND MAKE THESE LITTLE BABYS…THANK YOU SO MUCH ,,,,YOU CAN HAVE GREEN ALL YEAR LONG JUST SLICE THEM,AND PUT ON COOKIE SHEET AND FREEZE THEM .tHEN JUST PUT THEM IN ZIP LOCK FREEZER BAGS..I GAVE SOME TO MY DAUGHTER IN VIRIGINA,SHE SAID THEY WERE AMAZING…..
I had no idea you could freeze green tomatoes. You are my new hero!!!
I made these today and I’m happy to say that I LOVE THEM. Though, not nearly as much as my family! Thank you for the amazing recipe.
Thank you trying this recipe. So happy you and your family enjoyed it and thank you for letting me know.
wonder what they would taste like using cornmeal mix instead of flour??? I might give that a try, I like cornbread style muffins better than flour cake like…..
In this recipe it calls for milk, sweet or butter milk,,my cousin said sweet, is she correct
Yes, Ann, is is sweet. Enjoy!
Wonderful way to use up all of those green ‘maters in the garden!
Can’t wait to try these !! Thank you !!!
I want to make these. Can you freeze them? Or should I just freeze the tomatoes and make the recipe with frozen thawed green tomatoes?
Can’t wait until the garden is ready
Oh I think I missed this when I was on vacation. I’m trying to think of how these would taste. I’m sure great, maybe tart and creamy too.
Are you going to have any of these left when I get there on Saturday!!
heheh!
