Spray a <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4jtr0VL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">12-count muffin pan<\/a> generously with nonstick spray. I don\u2019t recommend using muffin liners, but if you\u2019d like to, spray them generously with nonstick spray.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-2\">In a medium bowl, <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3lBsmUZ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">preferably one with a pour spout<\/a>, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder just until combined.

You can also assemble the egg muffins through step 4, loosely cover and refrigerate overnight, and then bake in the morning. Though I will say that you have best results (texture and taste) if you prepare the mixture and bake the muffins right away.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Storage &amp; Reheating Instructions:<\/strong> Cover leftover egg muffins and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. <strong>Microwave:<\/strong> Wrap or cover egg muffins with a damp paper towel and microwave for 20\u201330 seconds, or until warmed through. (Don\u2019t overheat, or they will taste rubbery.) <strong>Oven:<\/strong> Bake, covered, in a 350\u00b0F (177\u00b0C) oven for 5\u201310 minutes, or until warmed through. <strong>Air Fryer:\u00a0<\/strong>Air fry at 375\u00b0F (191\u00b0C) for 3\u20134 minutes, or until warmed through.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Freezing Instructions: <\/strong>Cool baked egg muffins completely, transfer to a <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3QgDlQT\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">freezer-safe container<\/a>, and cover tightly. Freeze for up to 3 months. When ready to eat, thaw in the refrigerator, and follow the reheating instructions in the Note above. Or skip thawing and microwave for 1\u20132 minutes, or until warmed throughout.<\/li>\n<li><b>Special Tools<\/b> (affiliate links): <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3lBsmUZ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">Mixing Bowls With Pour Spout<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00004OCNS?creativeASIN=B00004OCNS&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;tag=sallysbakingaddict-2-bg-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">Whisk<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4jtr0VL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">12-count Muffin Pan<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3QgDlQT\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">Storage Container Set<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>Egg Whites Only?<\/strong> I don\u2019t recommend using only egg whites because you will lose a lot of richness and flavor that the yolks provide. If you\u2019d like to try it, I suggest using 2 whole eggs and 6 egg whites.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Milk:<\/strong> Whole milk or half-and-half provide the best taste and texture, but you can substitute lower-fat or nondairy milk in a pinch. Using heavy cream makes for a creamier texture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ham &amp; Cheddar Egg Muffins:<\/strong> Replace the bell peppers, tomatoes, and spinach with 1 and 1\/2 cups (225g or 6 oz.) of finely cubed cooked ham and 2 Tablespoons chopped parsley or chives (or you can skip the parsley\/chives if desired). Replace the feta cheese with shredded sharp cheddar cheese. All instructions remain the same.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Other Add-ins and Cheeses:<\/strong> Use about 1 and 1\/2 cups (around 225g) add-ins + 3\/4 cup cheese total. The version above uses about 2 cups, but I don\u2019t really count spinach because it hardly takes up any room! Favorite add-ins include cooked meats (or plant-based alternatives) like chopped\/crumbled sausage, bacon, or chicken. Or try mushrooms, sun-dried tomatoes, cooked corn, cooked potato, and\/or cooked broccoli. You can mix any of these together to total around 1 and 1\/2 cups. Favorite cheeses include white cheddar, pepper jack, smoked gouda, and crumbled goat cheese.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mini Egg Muffins:<\/strong> For mini egg muffins, chop your vegetables\/add-ins even finer and use a generously greased mini muffin pan. Use the same oven temperature, but reduce the bake time to about 10 minutes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Breakfast Egg Muffins (Frittata Muffins) Find it online: https:\/\/sallysbakingaddiction.com\/egg-muffins-recipe\/ 5 Stars 4 Stars 3 Stars 2 Stars 1 Star 4.8 from 53 reviews Author: Sally McKenney Prep Time: 15 minutes Cook Time: 20 minutes Total Time: 35 minutes Yield: 12 If it\u2019s healthy grab-and-go morning fuel you\u2019re after, try these easy breakfast egg muffins.
