Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 units large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
- 0.25 cup green onions, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with butter.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.
In another bowl, melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, then let it cool slightly.
Whisk the large eggs and whole milk into the melted butter until fully incorporated.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients, then pour the wet mixture into it. Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix.
Fold in the crumbled bacon, grated cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions into the batter. Add black pepper and mix until evenly distributed.
Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature as a savory addition to your breakfast table.
