Ingredients
- 6 pieces Large eggs
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 4 slices Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 0.5 cup Red bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup Baby spinach, chopped
- 0 Cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly spray a standard 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Step 3
Evenly distribute the chopped spinach, diced red bell pepper, crumbled bacon, and shredded cheddar cheese between the muffin cups.
Step 4
Pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about three-quarters of the way full to leave room for the muffins to rise as they bake.
Step 5
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the egg muffins are set and lightly golden on top.
Step 6
Remove the egg muffins from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before carefully removing them from the tin using a butter knife or small spatula.
Step 7
Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. They can also be frozen and reheated in the microwave for a quick breakfast option.
