Breakfast Egg Muffins

A simple, savory egg cake baked in a muffin tin, perfect for make-ahead breakfasts.

Ingredients

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

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Grease a nonstick muffin tin with olive oil. Divide the diced red bell pepper and scallions evenly among the muffin cups.
  3. In a large bowl, crack and whisk the eggs until combined. Add grated garlic, sea salt, and black pepper.
  4. Sprinkle the flour and baking powder over the eggs and whisk well to combine.
  5. Divide the egg mixture evenly into the muffin cups, about a scant ¼ cup per cup. Sprinkle crumbled feta on top.
  6. Bake for 22 to 24 minutes, or until the eggs are set and a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before removing to a rack to finish cooling.
