Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 0.5 cup Canned or frozen corn kernels, drained (if canned) or thawed (if frozen)
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, finely chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and black pepper.
In a separate medium bowl, mix the milk, melted butter, and egg until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, corn kernels, and chopped green onions, mixing gently to distribute evenly.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely or serve warm.
