Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons green onions, thinly sliced
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then stir in the milk and melted butter until fully incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the muffins dense.
Fold in the cooked and crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, green onions, and black pepper. Stir until evenly distributed.
Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely or serving warm.
Enjoy your Cheese Bacon Breakfast Muffins as a quick breakfast, snack, or packed meal option!
