Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- ¼ cup milk (optional, for fluffiness)
- ½ cup diced bell peppers (any color)
- ¼ cup chopped spinach or kale
- ¼ cup diced onions
- ¼ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- ¼ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or feta)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: chopped mushrooms, zucchini, cooked broccoli, herbs
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 6-cup or 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick spray or olive oil.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
- Evenly divide the chopped vegetables and cheese among the muffin cups.
- Pour the egg mixture into each cup, filling them about ¾ of the way full.
- Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the muffins are set and lightly golden on top.
- Let them cool for a few minutes before removing from the tin. Serve warm or store in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Tips
- These freeze well! Just wrap them individually and reheat in the microwave for 30–60 seconds.
- Don’t overfill the cups—eggs puff up while baking and you want to avoid spills.
- Use silicone muffin liners for easier cleanup.
