BACON CHEDDAR CORNBREAD MUFFINS

Steps:

• Cook bacon until just beginning to crisp, on the stove top in a frying pan. Remove and drain on paper towel to cool. Drain off most of the bacon grease, leaving 1-2 tablespoons behind then add yellow onion and sweat over medium heat until tender and starting to brown around the edges, about 7 minutes.
• While bacon and onions cook, preheat oven to 400°F (205°C). Prepare a 12 cup muffin pan: lightly with non-stick spray (bacon grease or butter) or line with paper muffin liners. (Or use a silicone muffin pan like the one above and skip the liners and extra fat.)
• Lightly whisk together buttermilk, olive oil and egg in a small bowl. Combine dry ingredients - flour, cornmeal, baking powder and soda, salt, chili powder and red pepper flakes - in a larger bowl. Add wet mix to dry mix and fold a few times with a spatula or wooden spoon to start to combine.
• Lightly chop bacon, add half the bacon to your mix along with all of the onion (both the cooked yellow and raw green) and 1 cup of the cheese, then mix until just combined. DO NOT OVER MIX. Divide cornbread batter equally among baking cups filling about the 3/4 mark. Sprinkle remaining bacon and cheese on top. Bake in 400°F (205°C) 15 - 20 minutes or until a toothpick in center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Remove Bacon Cheddar Cornbread Muffins from the pan to cool on wire racks.
