👩‍🍳 How to Make Egg Muffin Cups

✅ Step 1: Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or use silicone liners for easy release.

✅ Step 2: Prep Fillings

Dice your vegetables and cooked meat. Shred cheese if needed.

✅ Step 3: Whisk Eggs

In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and any herbs or spices.

✅ Step 4: Assemble Muffin Cups

Evenly distribute veggies, meat, and cheese into each muffin cup. Pour the egg mixture over the fillings, filling each cup about ¾ full.

✅ Step 5: Bake

Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the egg is fully set and slightly golden. Let cool in the tin for 5 minutes before removing.


🧊 Storage & Reheating

  • Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days
  • Freezer: Freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in microwave for 30–60 seconds
  • Tip: Wrap individually for easy grab-and-go mornings

🧁 Flavor Variations

  • Mediterranean: Feta, spinach, cherry tomatoes, olives
  • Keto-Friendly: Bacon, cheddar, jalapeño
  • Vegetarian: Mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, goat cheese
  • Dairy-Free: Use plant-based cheese or skip cheese entirely

✅ Tips for Perfect Egg Muffins

  • Use a silicone muffin tray for easy release
  • Don’t overfill with veggies—too much moisture can affect texture
  • Let them cool before storing to avoid sogginess
  • Season generously for extra flavor
