Smoked Salmon Muffins With Herb Cheese Recipes

SMOKED SALMON AND HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• For the herb butter, combine the butter, garlic, scallions, dill, parsley, juice juice, salt and pepper in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat until mixed, but do not whip.
• To serve, spread some herb butter on a slice of bread and top it with a slice of smoked salmon.

BREAKFAST HERB BREAD WITH SMOKED SALMON SPREAD

Steps:

• Salmon Spread -- In a small bowl, mix the room temp soft cream cheese, sour cream, salt, pepper, scallion and then fold in the smoked salmon. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Done!
• Bread -- In a medium size bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, pepper, lemon zest and herbs. Then in a measuring cup or small bowl, melt the butter. I just used the microwave for 10-15 seconds. Let cool about a minute and then add the milk and eggs and beat well to combine. Add the egg and milk mixture to the dry and ingredients and mix with a fork lightly until combined. DO not over mix.
• Bread Pans -- I lightly grease and flour the bread pans and fill with the bread mix. Preheat the oven to 400 and cook approximately 20-30 minutes. I have made this recipe 30-40 times at least. Just check the bread by sticking a knife in the center, when it comes out clean it is done. I have had it done from 20-35 minutes, so, just keep an eye on it. Remove from the oven and let cool 10-15 minutes and then remove from the pan.
• You can easily make this as muffins or even a big loaf, but I just love the mini loafs for this. Just makes it perfect for breakfast.
• Finish -- Simply slice the bread while warm. If made in advance, I just warm for a few seconds in the microwave. Spread the chilled salmon spread over the bread and enjoy. That's it! Personally, I love a soft cooked egg or poached egg is great to serve with this, but not necessary. But it finishes the dish perfectly. Some soft scrambled eggs are also great along this as well.
