Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.75 cup Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 0.5 cup Green onions, chopped
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 2 Large eggs
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions until they are evenly distributed throughout the dry ingredients.
Step 4
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, and eggs until well combined.
Step 5
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Do not overmix—it's okay if a few streaks of flour remain.
Step 6
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 7
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18–22 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.
Step 9
Serve warm or at room temperature. These muffins are great on their own or with a smear of butter!
