 Bacon, Gruyère and Scallion Savory Muffins


+ an adapted Gourmet Magazine recipe

• 6 slices apple-smoked bacon
• 1 1/2 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 4 ounces grated Gruyère cheese
• 1/3 cup finely chopped scallion
• 3/4 cup milk
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
•  Extra-Virgin olive oil, if needed

1.  Preheat oven to 425°F. and butter twelve 1/3-cup muffin tins.
2.  Slice bacon into 1/4-inch wide pieces.  In a skillet cook bacon over moderately low heat until crisp and transfer to paper towels to drain, reserving 1/4 cup bacon fat.  Add olive oil to the bacon fat, if necessary, to equal 1/4 cup.
3.  In a bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, Gruyère, scallion, and bacon. In a small bowl whisk together milk, egg, mustard, and reserved bacon fat. Add milk mixture to flour mixture, stirring until just combined (do not over mix).
4.  Divide batter evenly among muffin tins and bake in middle of oven 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden and a tester comes out clean.

Eileen, I woke up at 4 a.m. this morning and Dale asks me why I wouldn't want to go into the kitchen and bake Eileen's savory muffins for breakfast. Glaubes du dass? Yes, they just came out of the oven. Look beautiful and I know they will taste wonderful. Anxious to try with a glass of wine also. Danke.
