Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 400 °F. Cover a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the bacon slices on the baking sheet and place in the oven. Cook until bacon is slightly crisp, about 15 minutes. Remove from the sheet and sponge the fat with paper towels. Chop roughly and reserve.
- Preheat oven to 375 °F. Line 12 muffin cups with paper or silicone sleeves.
- In a large bowl, add flour, cinnamon, baking powder, nutmeg and salt. Mix and reserve.
- In another large bowl, add remaining ingredients except bacon and apple. Mix with a whisk to break the brown sugar.
- Pour the wet into the dry ingredients and stir with a whisk to incorporate well. Do not over mix. Add 3/4 of bacon and all the apples and mix by folding.
- Divide the mixture into the muffin cups and decorate the top with the remaining bacon.
- Place in the oven and cook for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out dry when poked in the center. Remove from the oven and let stand for 20 minutes before eating!
Our sommeliers suggest
Scotch Ale, 8.2%
Simple Malt
A muffin with maple bacon inside needs a beer that can keep up. The brown ale brings caramelized sugar and candied fruit that follow the apple and the maple, and its roasted malt answers the saltiness of the bacon without fighting it. Save it for a stormy evening, with a second muffin.

Pas Sages Riesling 2022
Canada
For these muffins, open the Pas Sages Riesling, a fruity, lively white from Canada. Riesling carries acidity, and that is what cuts the maple and brown sugar. The salty, smoky bacon finds its counterpoint, while the apple and cinnamon stay up front. A well-balanced brunch.
