- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
- Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Crumble the bacon into small pieces.

- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
