Egg Muffins or Breakfast Egg Cups


Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk (optional, for fluffier texture)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
  • 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1/4 cup chopped spinach or kale
  • 1/4 cup diced onions
  • 1/4 cup cooked and crumbled sausage or bacon (optional)
  • Cooking spray or oil (for greasing muffin tin)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray or oil.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk (if using), salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Stir in the cheese, vegetables, and cooked meat if using. Mix well.
  4. Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  5. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the egg muffins are set in the center and slightly golden on top.
  6. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before removing from the tin.
  7. Serve warm, or store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave before serving.
