How to Make Bacon Breakfast Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a small skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup chopped green onions and cook until softened, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 cup sugar.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1 cup milk.
  5. Stir in 4 slices cooked and crumbled bacon, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, and the cooked green onions with butter.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  8. Bake for 25-27 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
