effexMy go-to breakfast (plus yogurt and a banana) this week, slightly altered from this recipe.
Ingredients:
* 1 cup all-purpose flour
* 1 cup instant oats
* 8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
* 3 teaspoons baking powder
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1 egg
* 1/2 cup milk
* 1/2 cup vegetable oil
* 2/3 cup maple syrup
Directions:
1) Preheat your over to 400F and grease/paper-cup-line a muffin pan.
2) In a large bowl, combine flour, oats, bacon, baking powder, and salt.
3) In a smaller bowl, whisk the remaining ingredients together.
4) Pour the wet stuff into the dry stuff and stir until the mixture is just moistened (still has some lumps/isn't perfectly smooth, etc. Perfectly smooth is the enemy of baked goods).
5) Spoon into your muffin pan and bake for 20-25 minutes.
6) Cool for 5 minutes and then move to a wire rack.
7) Enjoy!
Notes:
This made 12 smallish muffins (would probably make 6 medium-ish ones, if you're using a 6-up pan). Next time I'll probably double the batch.
I made 8 pieces of bacon and promptly ate two - this was a mistake! The more bacon in the muffins the better. You might want to make extra bacon.
I cooked the bacon to cooked-but-slightly-floppy, which is my preferred bacon crispness. It worked fine, I just had to tear/chop it instead of crumbling.
