Savory Breakfast Muffins

From EatingWell: April/May 2005, The EatingWell Diabetes Cookbook (2005)

If you're tired of sweet breakfast muffins or just looking for a savory breakfast, try these--you'll love the smoky flavor from the Canadian bacon and the fresh-tasting combination of red bell pepper and scallions.

These "savoury scones" are very popular in New Zealand and are part of the staple down there. We eat them with butter and they are plain, that's the way they are supposed to be. North American's are so used to sweet and over the top spice that I can understand how these would rate as needing some oomph!

I thought these were a little bland. I want to try them again but next time I will sub stone ground cornmeal for 1/2 the whole wheat and use canned green chiles (medium not mild) in place of the red pepper. I also think you need to use extra sharp cheddar to get any taste of cheese in them. I think it's worth playing with these because they make such a great quick breakfast, especially paired with the mini quiches also in this issue.

I think these have the potential to be Awesome! They were a little bland. However, recipes can always be adjusted. I think next time I will saute my bacon, onion, and bell peppers in the olive oil and butter first. I will also add some fresh garlic and do half the cheese in pepper jack. I think this will make them even better!!

I made these substitutions because I didn't have all the ingredients: 1 cup each of rice, plain & wholewheat flour, regular bacon*, sweet marinated pepper strips* (from a jar), leeks*, extra fresh pepper. It is a keeper! The hardest part was waiting the 5 minutes to cool them!

* cut up really, really small for a better flavor infusion
