- 4-cup measuring cup
- 2 whisks
- Silicone spatula or wooden spoon
- half-sheet wire rack
- Parchment paper

Ingredients
- 1 ½ c All-Purpose Flour
- 2 TBS Granulated Sugar
- 2 teaspoon Baking Powder
- ½ teaspoon Baking Soda
- ⅛ teaspoon Table Salt
- 1 Large Egg room temperature
- 1 c Buttermilk room temperature
- 2 TBS Unsalted Butter melted and slightly cooled
- ¼ c Maple Syrup

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray, set aside until ready to fill. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a 4-cup measuring cup, whisk together egg, buttermilk, melted butter, and maple syrup. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently stir the mixture with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula until just combined. Do not over-mix; a few lumps are fine. Gently fold in the cooked, crumbled bacon, reserving 2 tablespoons to sprinkle on top.
- Use an ice cream scoop to evenly divide the batter among the 12 muffin cups, filling each well about ⅔ full. Sprinkle the reserved bacon on top.
- Bake in 375°F oven for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and allow the muffins to cool for about 5 minutes in the pan. Carefully remove the warm muffins from the pan and set them on a wire rack set over a parchment-lined sheet pan. Then, drizzle maple syrup over the tops of the warm muffins, letting some run down the sides.
