Of course! You want a McGriddle Muffins recipe — like the classic McDonald’s McGriddle, but in easy muffin form?
Here’s a homemade version that captures that sweet, savory, fluffy magic:
McGriddle Muffins Recipe
Ingredients:
For the muffins:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 large egg
- ¾ cup milk
- ¼ cup maple syrup (the real stuff if you can!)
- ⅓ cup melted butter (or vegetable oil)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
For the filling:
- 6 slices cooked bacon, chopped (or cooked breakfast sausage crumbles)
- Extra maple syrup (for drizzling)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line or grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
- Mix dry ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. - Mix wet ingredients:
In another bowl, whisk the egg, milk, melted butter, maple syrup, and vanilla until combined. - Combine:
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir just until combined (don’t overmix). - Assemble:
Fill each muffin cup about halfway. Sprinkle in some chopped bacon (or sausage). Drizzle a little extra maple syrup over the bacon if you want them gooey inside! Top with a bit more batter if needed. - Bake:
Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. - Cool and serve:
Let cool slightly — they’re best warm! You can also split them and add scrambled eggs or cheese between two muffin halves for a full McGriddle experience.
Tips:
- For extra maple flavor, you can stir maple syrup right into the batter and brush some on top after baking.
- Use mini muffin pans for “McGriddle Bites”!
