Bacon Cheddar Savoury Muffins
Savoury muffins built from a buttermilk flour batter folded with crisp diced bacon, sharp cheddar, egg, and scallion, then baked until domed and golden. Buttermilk and egg give a tender crumb while smoked pork lends salt and fat throughout. Served warm as a breakfast or brunch side.
