Breakfast Egg Muffins

Delightful egg muffins filled with fresh veggies and tangy feta, perfect for busy mornings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • Extra-virgin olive oil (for greasing the pan)
  • 2 cups diced red bell pepper
  • ½ cup chopped scallions
  • 9 large eggs
  • 1 garlic clove (grated)
  • Heaping ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • ¾ teaspoon baking powder
  • ⅓ cup crumbled feta cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Generously grease a nonstick muffin tin with olive oil.
  3. Distribute the diced red bell pepper and chopped scallions evenly among the muffin cups.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until well-beaten.
  5. Add the grated garlic, sea salt, and several grinds of black pepper to the egg mixture and stir to combine.
  6. Sprinkle the flour and baking powder over the egg mixture, incorporating thoroughly.
  7. Pour the egg mixture into muffin cups, filling each with about a scant ¼ cup.
  8. Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top of each muffin cup.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 22 to 24 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the tops are golden.
  10. Allow the muffins to cool slightly before carefully removing them from the pan.

Notes

For a fluffier texture, let the egg mixture sit for a few minutes before baking. Use silicone muffin cups for easy removal.
