Quick & Tasty Veggie-Packed Egg Muffins


  • Author: Alessia

Ingredients

Scale

Before diving into the preparation, let’s take a look at the ingredients you’ll need to create these delightful muffins:

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk (or almond milk for a dairy-free option)
  • 1 cup chopped veggies (choose from bell peppers, spinach, onions, or broccoli)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella work best)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: herbs (such as parsley, basil, or oregano)

Instructions

Creating these veggie-packed egg muffins is a breeze. Follow these simple steps and you’ll have a batch ready in no time:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a muffin tin to prevent sticking.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together eggs and milk until well combined. This will ensure your muffins are light and fluffy.
  3. Stir in chopped veggies and cheese. Season the mixture with salt, pepper, and herbs to taste. Customize the flavor according to your preference.
  4. Pour the mixture evenly into the muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full. This will give them room to rise without overflowing.
  5. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until muffins are set and lightly golden. Keep an eye on them to prevent overcooking.
  6. Let them cool for a few minutes before removing them from the tin. Cooling allows them to firm up and makes them easier to remove.
