Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 6 large Eggs
  • 1/2 cup Bell Peppers, diced
  • 1 cup fresh Spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 cup Cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice), shredded
  • 1/4 cup Onion, diced
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black Pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Olive Oil or Cooking Spray

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Veggies: Dice the bell peppers and onions, then lightly sauté them in a pan with olive oil until soft and fragrant to deepen flavors and prevent soggy muffins.
  2. Whisk the Eggs: Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and whisk until the yolks and whites are fully combined. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  3. Mix Everything Together: Fold the sautéed veggies, chopped spinach, and shredded cheese into the egg mixture, ensuring everything is evenly distributed.
  4. Pour into Muffin Tin: Grease a muffin tin with olive oil or use cooking spray (or line with silicone cups). Pour the egg mixture evenly into each cup, filling about three-quarters full.
  5. Bake to Perfection: Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes until muffins are puffed, golden, and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow to cool slightly before removing from the tin.

Notes

  • Don’t overfill the muffin cups to ensure even cooking and proper rising.
  • Use fresh ingredients for vibrant flavors and better texture.
  • Preheat your oven fully before baking for best results.
  • Grease the muffin tin well if not using silicone liners to prevent sticking.
  • Check doneness with a toothpick to avoid under or over-baking.
