We enjoyed these savory muffins. They reminded me a bit of cornbread muffins, and were a nice addition to breakfast. The bacon, cilantro, and cheddar make for a colorful muffin. I thought they needed a little something, so we tried a dab of butter and then also tried a drizzle of maple syrup -- yum!

Thank you! I skipped the cilantro because I didn't have any at home today and they turned out great! Next time I'll try with it
