    Ingredients

    • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour

    • 1/4 cup sugar

    • 1 tablespoon baking powder

    • 1/2 teaspoon salt

    • 1 cup milk

    • 1/2 cup maple syrup

    • 1 egg

    • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

    • 1/2 cup cooked bacon, crumbled

    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    Directions

    • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick spray or line with paper liners.
    • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly mixed and set aside.
    • In another bowl, combine milk, maple syrup, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract, mixing until well incorporated.
    • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined to avoid overmixing.
    • Fold in the crumbled cooked bacon and mix lightly into the batter ensuring even distribution throughout.
    • Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
    • Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
    • Serve warm with an additional drizzle of maple syrup or butter if desired for extra flavor.

    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!

    Little Caesars’ Fan-Favorite Personal Pizza Deal Is Back

    A pizza-and-bread combo can pack in a fair amount of refined carbs and sodium in one sitting, especially with dipping sauce added on top. To round things out, consider pairing the combo with a side salad or a piece of fruit to add some fiber, and going easy on the dipping sauce rather than using the full portion with every bite.

    Cantonese BBQ Brisket Is Back at Panda Express After Selling Out Earlier This Summer

    Pairing a high-protein entrée with the right sides can help round out a more balanced meal. Consider choosing a vegetable-based side like mixed veggies instead of fried rice or chow mein to add fiber without extra refined carbs, and opting for a bowl over a plate if you’re looking to manage overall portion size while still getting the full protein benefit of the entrée.

    Wendy’s Halloween Kids’ Meal Is Back — And Adults Are Ordering It Too

    Kids’ meals are portioned smaller than adult entrées, which can actually make them a reasonable option for a lighter meal or a snack-sized treat. To keep things balanced, consider pairing the meal with a side of apple bites instead of fries, choosing a lower-sugar beverage like milk or water over a fountain drink, and treating the Frosty as a dessert to enjoy on its own rather than adding it on top of a larger meal.
