Egg Muffins Recipe
Description
Egg Muffins are made by mixing eggs with seasonings such as garlic pepper, cheese, lean meat, and vegetables if desired. The mixture is poured into sprayed muffin cups and baked at 375°F until puffed and set. The muffins rise during baking and then settle, creating a soft, airy texture inside with flavorful inclusions throughout.
The recipe allows flexibility in cheese and meat choices, adapting to different tastes and dietary preferences. These muffins provide a convenient way to enjoy eggs in a portable, grab-and-go form, making breakfast or snacks simple.
After cooling, the muffins store well in the refrigerator for about 5 days. For reheating, wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave briefly or use a toaster oven. They can also be frozen individually wrapped for up to 3 months; thaw in the fridge before reheating. The muffins can be eaten cold if preferred since they are fully cooked.
Ingredients
- 10 egg
- 1-2 teaspoons garlic pepper
- 1-2 cups Colby jack cheese (or cheese of choice)
- ½ cup lean meat (low-fat turkey, turkey sausage, turkey bacon, etc)
- vegetables peppers, spinach, etc, optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. A silicone muffin pan or cups will work best for this recipe, but a standard muffin tin will work too.
- Mix all ingredients, whisking your eggs first.
- Pour into sprayed cups filling almost to the top.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, checking often. Eggs will puff up and look like they are overflowing. Don't be alarmed, they will set back down to normal size. Enjoy warm!
Notes
- Store cooled egg muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Reheat by wrapping in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 15 seconds or warming in a toaster oven.
- Egg muffins are fully cooked and safe to eat cold if desired.
- Freeze individually wrapped muffins in airtight containers for up to 3 months; thaw in the fridge before reheating.
