Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, salt, & pepper until well combined.
- Spray a muffin pan very well with cooking spray, or line with silicone or parchment liners. Divide the red pepper, onion, ham/bacon/sausage, and cheese over 12 wells.
- Pour the egg mixture over the cheese mixture.
- Bake for 22-25 minutes or until set.
- Let rest 3 minutes. Run a butter knife along the edges to release the muffins and remove them from the muffin tin.
- Serve warm or let cool completely and refrigerate or freeze.
Notes
- Eggs: Muffin tins can vary in size slightly (and it can also depend on how much "add-ins" are added) so you may need a little bit more or less egg, fill the wells about ¾ full or a little bit more. I use 10 eggs to make 12 muffins. They will puff up as they bake and fall a bit after baking.
- This recipe can also be made using 6 whole eggs and 1 cup of egg whites.
- Additions: Add any kind of leftovers, potatoes, veggies, or meats. If you add extra add-ins, you may need a bit less egg.
- If using sausage, cook in a large skillet over medium-high heat until no pink remains.
- Reheating: Reheat cooked egg muffins in the microwave for 30-60 seconds or until heated through.
