Easy Bacon Baked Potato Soup

Tips:

Be sure to toss the potatoes in the oven early or be careful when you peel them/scoop out the cooked potatoes from the peel so you don't get burned on the hot potato skins or the steam!

FAQ:

How do you bake a potato?
Wash the potato and use a fork to poke a few holes into the potatoes to let out some steam. It's nice to rub them with a bit of olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.
Bake them until tender, about 45-60 minutes.
You can wrap them individually in foil, if you'd like!

How long does it take to sauté onions?
According to BHG it takes about 5-7 minutes "to remove the harsh onion flavor and just barely start to sweeten the cooking onion"

Is it necessary to add garlic after onions when sautéing?
This article was interesting. According to their test, it's not as crucial as you might think. If you want a more garlicky flavor, add garlic a few minutes after the onions have been sautéing. If you want the garlic flavor to be more mellow, add garlic at the same time. Either way, just keep an eye on your heat level and make sure the garlic doesn't get overcooked/burned!

What is the correct temperature for soup?
According to Rouxbe, proper soup serving temperatures are
Hot Clear Soups: serve near boiling 210°F (99°C)
Hot Cream or Thick Soups: serve between 190°F to 200°F (88°C to 93°C)
Cold Soups: serve at 40°F (4°C) or lower.

An instant read thermometer is a great tool to have in your kitchen.

How To Make Cinnamon Apple Muffins:
1. Sift Flour, Baking Powder, Salt, and Cinnamon Together (tiny whisk optional, but desirable)

Did You Know? Sri Lanka is known for having the best quality cinnamon in the world, called Ceylon Cinnamon or "true cinnamon". The flavor is more delicate and highly prized in comparison to the more common cassia cinnamon. Both are helpful for diabetics and there is some indication that cinnamon has benefits relating to Alzheimer's disease, potentially blocking the tau protein from building up in the brain which is characteristic of Alzheimer's.

tl;dr Cinnamon is both delicious and helps to keep your body and mind feeling prime!

How To Make Cinnamon Apple Muffins:
2. Toss diced apples with flour and cinnamon.

How To Make Cinnamon Apple Muffins:
3. Cream the butter and sugar, eggs, and vanilla

Did You Know? In place of vanilla extract, you can always use vanilla beans. Simply split the bean open and scrape out thousands of tiny, flavor-packed seeds! You can also try vanilla paste and pure vanilla powder!

How To Make Cinnamon Apple Muffins:
4. Alternate folding in the flour mixture with milk

We love our rubbermaid silicone spatulas for this - flexible enough to fold everything in, but sturdy enough to not make a mess!

5. Fold in the diced apples tossed in cinnamon and flour.

How To Make Cinnamon Apple Muffins:
6. Scoop into muffin tins and bake at 375 F for ~ 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

How To Make Cinnamon Apple Muffins:
7. Prepare the toping - The Add a Pinch Cinnamon Apple Muffins have a delightful Butter Cinnamon Sugar Topping!

Typically you melt the butter, brush the melted butter on the finished muffins hot out of the oven and then dip into the cinnamon sugar mixture. But since I didn't read closely enough, I melted the butter together with the cinnamon and sugar.

How To Make Cinnamon Apple Muffins:
8. Add the topping and enjoy!

I used a silicone pastry brush to spread the butter cinnamon sugar topping over the apple cinnamon muffins and sprinkled an extra bit of sugar to give it some more texture and Voila!

Add a Pinch Cinnamon Apple Muffin Recipe Review

These were some of the most delicious cinnamon apple muffins I've made, and I have made quite a few over the years. The apple chunks were the right size to fully appreciate, the inside of the muffin was moist, but not batter-y and underdone. The topping was delightful! Warm or room temp, this may be the best apple cinnamon recipe I've tried so far! For the full recipe, visit the Add a Pinch Cinnamon Apple Muffins Recipe here!
