Breakfast Egg Muffins
These egg muffins are protein packed and loaded with lots of nutritious veggies. The best part is how versatile they are- You can mix and match the veggies or switch up your protein choice. You'll never have the same egg muffin twice!
What ingredients do I need to make this Egg Muffin Recipe?
Be sure to have a muffin pan ready. I love using a silicone muffin pan because it prevents sticking, so the muffins pop right out of the pan!
Here's what you'll need:
- Eggs. 12 eggs fills up the muffin pan perfectly so you end up with 12 muffins.
- Seasonings: Salt, pepper and garlic powder
Optional Veggies & Breakfast Meats
Choose your favorites or use whatever you have on hand. Here are some ideas:
- Chopped onions, bell peppers or spinach.
- Ground sausage, cooked and crumbled bacon, diced ham.
Pictured here, I used Bob Evans naturally ground sausage and chopped fresh spinach. I have to keep our egg muffins simple so my picky kids will eat them!
This healthy breakfast recipe can be easily doubled to feed a crowd!
How do you make these egg muffins?
This is really the simplest breakfast recipe! Start by beating the eggs then add your seasonings. Toss in whatever veggies and/or meats you are using then mix everything together.
Pour the egg mixture into greased muffins tins and bake until set. That's it! You can serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days then reheat before serving.
How do you reheat egg muffins?
The easiest and quickest way to reheat egg muffins is in the microwave. I cook them for only about 30 seconds(depending on your microwave) just until they're heated through.
I make these breakfast muffins weekly. They're the perfect healthy start to your day and the protein keeps our bellies full all morning long.
Let's eat!
