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!

Tombstone’s French Fry Crust Pizza Just Got a New Flavor — And It’s Dividing the Internet

The potato-based crust on this pizza is a genuinely interesting swap for gluten-free eaters — it provides a crunchier, more satisfying texture than many traditional GF pizza crusts without wheat. At 300 calories per serving and 550mg of sodium, it’s worth being mindful of portion size, as the sodium adds up across multiple slices. Pairing a couple of slices with a large green salad or roasted vegetables rounds out the meal with fiber and nutrients that the pizza itself doesn’t provide. And if you’re adding extra cheese as reviewers recommend — which is very valid — opt for a lighter hand to keep the overall sodium and fat in check.

Paired with pineapple’s natural bromelain enzymes, which aid digestion and reduce inflammation, this cup is one of the most genuinely nourishing snack combinations in the collection.
