For a change of pace from sweet muffins, I like to make these. They're loaded with lots of flavor and perfect for mornings when you need to eat on the run.

We've had these muffins twice and the second time I used only spring whole wheat flour and 2 T of ground flax seeds...my family LOVES them. Also, I replaced the sugar with maple syrup. We will be enjoying these often!!!!!

I baked these this morning for my family, which includes teenagers. No one in my family liked them. The whole wheat flour makes them a little too dense and muted the flavor of the bacon and cheese. The muffins are bland, so if that is what you are going for, I guess this would be a good recipe for you.
