4 from 22 reviews

Protein-packed baked egg muffins loaded with fresh veggies and melted cheese, perfect for a quick, healthy breakfast or snack anytime.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins

Ingredients

Egg Mixture

  • 8 large eggs
  • ¼ cup milk
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Vegetables and Cheese

  • ½ cup diced bell pepper
  • ½ cup chopped spinach
  • ¼ cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)

Others

  • Non-stick cooking spray

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it is at the right temperature for baking the muffins evenly.
  2. Mix Eggs and Seasoning: In a large bowl, whisk together the 8 eggs, ¼ cup of milk, and salt and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy to incorporate air for fluffiness.
  3. Add Veggies and Cheese: Fold in the diced bell pepper, chopped spinach, and shredded cheese into the egg mixture, making sure everything is evenly distributed.
  4. Prepare Muffin Tin: Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick spray to prevent sticking. Pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about ¾ full to allow room for rising.
  5. Bake Egg Muffins: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the egg muffins are fully set and lightly golden on top.
  6. Cool and Remove: Allow the muffins to cool for a few minutes before carefully removing them from the tin to avoid breaking.

Notes

  • Store the egg muffins in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze them for up to 2 months for longer storage.
  • Feel free to add cooked sausage, mushrooms, or other favorite vegetables to customize your muffins.
  • These egg muffins reheat well in the microwave for a quick breakfast or snack.
