Ingredients:

  • 1 ½ cups gluten-free flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • A pinch of salt
  • A dash of pepper
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • ½ cup shredded cheese (reserve a little for topping)
  • ½ cup chopped cooked bacon (reserve a little for topping)
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • ½ green onion, chopped

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, baking soda, onion powder, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir until well blended.
  3. Add the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, and Greek yogurt until smooth. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
  4. Fold in the cheese, bacon, and green onion: Add the shredded cheese, chopped bacon, and green onion to the batter, reserving a little of the cheese and bacon for topping. Gently fold them in until evenly distributed.
  5. Fill the muffin tin: Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ full. Top each muffin with the reserved cheese and bacon for that extra delicious touch.
  6. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  7. Cool and enjoy: Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature!
