Savory Egg-Stuffed Bacon and Cheese Muffins

Healthy Fact of the Day

The combination of eggs, bacon, and cheese is often referred to as a "breakfast trifecta" due to their popularity and complementary flavors. These ingredients not only taste great together but also provide a balance of protein, fat, and carbohydrates to help fuel your day.

Ingredients

 

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup crumbled cooked bacon
  • 6 small egg

 

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 6-cup jumbo muffin tin or line it with large muffin liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, and 2 large eggs until well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  6. Using the back of a spoon, create a small well in the center of each muffin.
  7. Crack a small egg into each well, being careful not to break the yolk.
  8. Bake the muffins for 20-25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and the eggs are set to your desired level of doneness.
  9. Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool slightly.
  10. Serve the egg-stuffed bacon and cheese muffins warm, and enjoy the gooey, savory goodness in every bite!

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Happy National S’mores Day — Here’s Every Way to Celebrate Today

S’mores are one of the more naturally portion-controlled campfire treats — the classic two-graham-cracker format is a built-in serving size that’s hard to accidentally double without some effort. If you’re making them at home today, the S’mores Muddy Buddies recipe is one of the lighter options in the Daily Dish lineup, since the snack mix format naturally encourages smaller handfuls over larger portions. And if you’re reaching for a s’mores-flavored product like cereal or a Frappuccino, pairing it with a protein source — a handful of nuts alongside the cereal, or a Frappuccino after a protein-forward lunch — helps keep blood sugar from spiking and crashing on what’s otherwise a sugar-forward holiday.

Garlic Honey Lime Shrimp

Shrimp is one of the leanest, highest-protein seafood options available, delivering around 20 grams of protein per 3-ounce serving with minimal fat. Using honey as the glaze base means you achieve caramelization and sweetness with a natural ingredient that provides trace minerals and antioxidants alongside its flavor—a smarter swap than refined sugar in any quick glaze preparation.
