Mini BLT Muffins Bacon Lettuce (Basil) and Tomatoes

Pin It Now!

 OH BOY MUFFINS!  And just the right size... Min Muffins, just a bite or two!

But not just any muffins.  For these I went totally savory with all the flavors of a Classic BLT (Bacon lettuce and tomato Sandwich)!

Rich, moist (two secrets to insure extra moistness, sour cream and Mayonnaise) and simply exploding with flavors.

I made these for a Sunday morning Church social hour and they were a huge hit.  Of course anything with bacon is always a hit but the flavor combination set these apart!

The recipe will make 48 mini muffins, make larger muffins (be sure to cut the baking time by about 1/3rd) and the recipe will make about a dozen.

Unique flavors for a muffin (Classic flavors for a sandwich), super moist and a delicious combination makes these such a winner...

Enjoy indeed!

 OK... Here's what I did...

5. Add the BLT (Bacon basil and Tomatoes) and stir to evenly mix.  Fold gently to mix, do not over mix,
