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!

White Castle Is Putting Slider Vending Machines in 1,000 Locations — And They’re Already Live at Two Airports

Airport food is notoriously difficult to navigate nutritionally, and vending machines even more so — but White Castle sliders are actually among the more portion-controlled fast food options available in a travel setting. At around 140–170 calories per slider, a single Original or Cheese Slider is a manageable snack rather than a full meal splurge. If you’re grabbing from a kiosk on the go, pairing one slider with a bottle of water and a piece of fruit from a newsstand is a surprisingly balanced airport meal compared to a full fast food combo.

Why Learning to Cook Later in Life Might Be the Best Thing You Ever Do

Research on cooking skill acquisition in adults consistently finds that people who learn to cook later in life make measurably healthier food choices than those who rely on prepared and processed foods — not because they follow dietary guidelines more carefully, but because the act of cooking from scratch naturally produces meals with lower sodium, fewer additives, and more whole ingredients than the convenience foods they replace. Learning to cook is, among its other benefits, one of the most practical and sustainable health interventions available to any adult at any age.
