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!

McDonald’s Is About to Drop a New Breakfast Biscuit — And It’s Already in the App

Of the two new biscuit options, the Honey Brown Butter Chicken Biscuit is the lighter choice — a crispy chicken patty has less saturated fat than two slices of bacon with egg and cheese layered on top. McDonald’s biscuits are buttery and satisfying, which means one biscuit is generally a complete breakfast rather than a starting point for more. Pairing it with black coffee or water instead of a sweet beverage keeps the overall morning more balanced, and the honey brown butter sauce — while delicious — is worth using as a drizzle rather than a heavy pour to keep the calorie count in check.

The Instant Pot Meals Worth Actually Making (And the Trick That Makes Them Work)

Pressure cooking is one of the better methods for retaining nutrients in food — the shorter cook time means less exposure to heat, which preserves more vitamins and minerals than long stovetop or oven methods. It’s also one of the most efficient ways to cook dried beans from scratch, which are significantly lower in sodium than canned and higher in fiber per serving. If you haven’t tried cooking dried chickpeas or black beans in the Instant Pot, it’s worth the experiment — no soaking required and done in about 40 minutes.
