Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°. Coat a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray; set aside.

Whisk together flour, thyme, zest, baking powder, salt, pepper, and
baking soda in a large bowl. Stir in Gruyère; form a well in the center.
Mix sour cream, oil, and eggs in a measuring cup with a pour spout until eggs are lightly beaten; pour into well of dry ingredients and stir just until combined.

Scoop batter into muffin cups with a generous #20 (1/4 cup) scoop. Bake muffins until a toothpick inserted into centers comes out clean, 22–25 minutes. When pan is cool enough to handle, turn muffins out of cups onto a rack to cool completely.
