How to Make Bacon Gruyre And Scallion Muffins

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and grease twelve 1/3-cup muffin tins.

3. Crumble the cooked bacon.
4. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 cup grated Gruyère cheese, 2 tablespoons chopped scallions, and the crumbled bacon.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup milk, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, and the reserved 1/4 cup bacon fat.
6. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
7. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin tins, filling each about 2/3 full.
8. Bake in the middle of the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
