Egg and Bacon Breakfast Muffins

Once in a while, we want to indulge ourselves at Breakfast. Take a break from the routine of cereals and yoghurt with this delightfully tasty treat. I found this little gem in the quaint Café in Thao Dien, Ho Chi Minh City. I remember the entire family liked this muffin with a difference so much that we kept going back for more. This a zero-fuss easy to make dish. Kids love it.  Similar to other muffins, one can make it and store it away to have later but I would recommend having it fresh. While the ingredients in my recipe are Egg and Bacon, you can experiment with a veggie version featuring mushrooms and corn kernels as the key ingredients. Surely one of our favourite breakfast treats, I would highly recommend trying your hand at this snappy recipe. Smiling faces assured. Happy fooding around.

Notes

Vegetarian can very easily replace the bacon with mushrooms and/or corn kernels.  Silicon Muffin Liners are very handy in case you have access to these as these release the muffins very easily. Avoid paper liners as they are difficult to remove post baking. If you don’t have Silicon muffin liners, simply  spray or grease the muffin cups.
