Potato, Bacon, and Cheese Muffins Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with muffin liners.
- In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, and green onions (if using).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
- In another bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and melted butter until well blended.
- Add the dry ingredients to the potato mixture and stir until just combined.
- Slowly pour in the wet ingredients and mix gently until the batter is well incorporated. Avoid overmixing.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature.
