How to Make Bacon Breakfast Muffins
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- 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.
- 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.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1 cup milk.
- Stir in 4 slices cooked and crumbled bacon, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, and the cooked green onions with butter.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
- Bake for 25-27 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
