Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 4 large eggs
- 0.5 cups milk
- 0.25 cups melted unsalted butter
- 1 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cups cooked and crumbled bacon
- 1 cups chopped baby spinach
- 0.5 cups diced red bell pepper
- 0.25 cups chopped green onions
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 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 black pepper.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the milk and melted butter until well-combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, chopped spinach, diced red bell pepper, and chopped green onions. Mix until evenly distributed.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely or serve warm.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
