Instructions
- Before you start, make sure your ground turkey is cooked and seasoned so you can let it cool before combining all the ingredients. To cook the turkey, cook it in a pan with a little bit of oil.

- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and grease a muffin tin. Now, combine the dry ingredient in a medium bowl: flour, corn meal, baking powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: eggs, milk, and avocado oil.
- Add the dry ingredients into the bowl with the wet. Mix until combined and smooth.
- Once the dry and wet ingredients are combined, fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and cooked ground turkey. Fold gently until combined.
- Scoop the batter into greased muffin tins. Bake at 350 for 18-22 minutes.
