Low Carb Cheese Stuffed “Cornbread” Muffins
When I’m eating soup, I want some sort of bread to go along with it. I love a piece of grain free cornbread to sop up all the flavors. This is a really fun Grain free and low carb muffin because it is stuffed with cheese.
This low carb cheese stuffed muffin goes really well with Tomato soup. When I think of tomato soup, I immediately think of a grilled cheese sandwich. This is an easy grain free substitution to go along with your soup.
My daughter loves cheese sticks. She thought it was such a fun baking trick to cut the mozzarella into one inch pieces and stick them in the muffin batter.
I made this soup for us on a snow day, because nothing is more warming than a bowl of soup. The kids were playing outside and having so much fun. Aidalyn’s little cheeks were red, so I put some coconut oil on them to help prevent any chapping (she wasn’t happy about that part). Thankfully, she was excited that we were going to get in the kitchen and make something fun.
These are a great recipe to make with the kids, because it is really hard to mess up. Just mix everything well into the bowl and then spoon into your muffin tin. The best part is adding the cheese. What kid could resist helping?
We baked the muffins for 25 minutes. They were a little golden on the top. Look how gooey the cheese is! Oh, it was so perfect.

These sound so delicious!!! Grilled cheese and tomato soup go hand in hand, so this would be a great alternative!
I just have to eat something with my soup… It isn’t a meal without it, haha.
You had me at cheese (low carb was a bonus)
Oh I know!! I love gooey cheese… yum.
Looks delicious. Have to try this for my husband – he loves cheese and muffins. Thanks for sharing on Real Food Friday.
Thanks Marla!
What a GREAT idea. My kids are gonna love this… Thanks for sharing it at Savoring Saturdays. 🙂
My daughter thought they were fun to make too! I love anything that gets her excited in the kitchen.
Thank you Nicky! I love your link up, so glad you are hosting : ) I have a grain free cheese stick recipe I need to try. It sounds very similar to what are you describing but using almond flour. Do you bake yours or fry them?
I bake them for 5-6 minutes at 350 degrees.
Thanks! sounds wonderful.
Awesome Chrystal! Thank you for stopping by : )
Hi Angela! I’m stopping in from Let’s Get Real today. This is such a clever idea. My kids would love to help make these and probably like eating them even more. Such a great idea! You are right…….these would be perfect with grilled cheese.
Thanks for stopping by! My daughter loved making them. Any way to encourage her to get in the kitchen makes me happy too.
Thank you Kim! I’m using a plug in called Easy Recipe. I saw another blogger using it, and I liked how it looked. It was pretty easy to install and use. I like these muffins too. A good recipe for a side. Thanks for leaving me a message : )
Thank you Jaime!
