Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 0.75 cups Buttermilk
- 2 units Large eggs
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cups Grated cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cups Cooked and crumbled bacon
- 0.25 cups Chopped green onions
- 2 tablespoons Optional: honey for drizzling
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir until well mixed and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be lumpy.
Fold in the grated cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Optional: Drizzle a small amount of honey over the muffins for a touch of sweetness before serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature. These muffins are perfect as-is or paired with butter for extra indulgence!
