Recipe: Bacon and Cheese Muffins



My family loves muffins!  Pancakes and muffins...two of my kids favorite things.  We definitely have our tried and true favorite recipes for both, but we are like to experiment.  Okay, I like to experiment and my family reaps the rewards.  I have been looking for some new muffin recipes to give a try and hopped over to one of my favorite blogs, Mommy's Kitchen.  I absolutely love Tina's blog and have enjoyed many a great meal from her shared recipes.  And, bonus, like me she lives in Texas not too far from where I live (which would be the middle of nowhere, but I LOVE it!).  As I was perusing, I came across this recipe for Bacon and Cheese muffins.  It has our family's favorite two food groups...bacon and cheese.  I knew that my kids, and husband, would gobble these up in no time.  They did and loved it!

These muffins are tender and delicious!  I know they would be perfect to freeze and pull out on those morning when we are rushed.  Mine never made it to the freezer because they were immediately enjoyed!


Bacon and Cheese Muffins
(recipe by Tina/Mommy's Kitchen)

2 cups AP flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 1/4 cup.milk
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted and cooled
1 egg
1/2 lb bacon, diced, cooked and degreased
3/4 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  In a large mixing bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, salt and pepper. In a small bowl, mix together the milk, melted butter or margarine and eggs. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir just until moistened. Fold in the bacon and cheese just until combined. Scoop into greased or lined muffin tins. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until lightly golden brown.

Enjoy!
