These awesomely delicious (and super healthy) Egg Muffins are great as food prep for the week and even better are compliant with my all new 21-Day Challenge.
These muffins are scheduled as healthy snacks within the meal plans plus can be an option for breakfast on the go for you and the kids ;-)
Preparation Time 5 minutes Cooking Time 20 minutes Total Time 25 minutes Calories 259 kcal
Ingredients
1 bell pepper (your favourite colour)
3 spring onions
4 little cherry tomatoes/one normal tomato
6 eggs
1 handful spinach/ green leaves
2 slices cheddar (2 slices = around 50g; you can use different cheese too)
½-1 tsp salt
4-5 splashes hot sauce (or curry powder)
Equipment
6 slot muffin tin
Baking paper or muffin cups (only if you don't have a nonstick muffin tin)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 390°F.
Wash and dice the pepper, onions and tomatoes. and put them in a large mixing bowl.
Wash the spinach, lightly chop it and add it to the bowl as well.
Add the eggs and salt. Mix well. Pro tip - crack the eggs separately before adding. That way if you get a dodgy one, it won’t ruin the whole meal.
Optionally add some hot sauce, curry powder...whatever you like. Hot sauce is great!
Grease the muffin tin with oil and kitchen paper/baking brush and pour the egg mixture evenly into the muffin slots. (If you think they might still stick to the pan use some muffin cups or cut out some baking paper and to use as cups - definitely saves time on doing the washing up
If you’re so inclined then layering some cheese over the top of each muffin before they go into the oven is a delicious addition! You can also mix in the cheese to the batter.
Pop the tray into the oven for 15-18 minutes or until the tops are firm to the touch.
Bon Appetit!!
Additional Tips
If you prefer your eggs soft try 20 minutes baking time. If you like them well done, almost crunchy, go for 25 minutes!
