Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.75 cup Cooked bacon (crumbled)
- 0.25 cup Chopped green onions
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and black pepper until combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and melted butter until well blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as the batter should remain slightly lumpy.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops of the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the muffins to cool for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy these delicious Cheesy Bacon Muffins!
