How to Make Bacon Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Spray a 12-cup regular muffin tin with cooking spray.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  4. Stir in ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives, and ¼ cup granulated sugar.
  5. Crumble 4 slices cooked bacon and add to the dry ingredients.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, ½ cup milk, 1 teaspoon yellow mustard, and ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard.
  7. Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  8. Fill each muffin cup about ¾ full.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the muffins are golden brown.
  10. Remove from oven and let cool in the tin for 2 minutes.
  11. Carefully remove muffins from the muffin tin and serve warm.
