Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- ½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- ½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
- 1 cup vegetables, finely chopped (bell peppers, spinach, onions, tomatoes, etc.)
- ½ cup cooked meat, chopped (bacon, sausage, ham – optional)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tsp garlic powder (optional)
- Non-stick cooking spray or muffin liners
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick spray or use muffin liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
- Stir in the shredded cheese, vegetables, cooked meat (if using), salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix everything well to distribute the ingredients evenly.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly into each muffin cup, filling them about ¾ of the way full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the egg muffins are set and slightly golden on top. You can test with a toothpick; it should come out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave for 30-45 seconds before serving.
Notes
- Customize: Use your favorite veggies and proteins to create endless variations. Try mushrooms, zucchini, or different cheeses for unique flavors.
- Freeze: These muffins can be frozen for up to 3 months. Let them cool completely, then wrap them individually and store in a freezer-safe bag. Reheat directly from frozen for 1-2 minutes in the microwave.
