Variation Ideas
- Change the Meat – Try using bacon instead of sausage or mix both together. You can also stir in diced ham.
- Onions – Diced onions are delicious in the whole eggs.
- Use leftover veggies in the cups. We love green onion, potato, tomato, broccoli, mushrooms, spinach, sweet potatoes, and anything we have.
- Cheese – Any type of cheese will work. Sharp Cheddar, Monterey jack, Colby and more.
- Bell peppers. Try other types such as red or yellow.
- Seasoning – Feel free to use different types of seasoning. You can add in teaspoon garlic powder
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1 – Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and season with the salt and pepper.
Step 2 – Spray the muffin pans with nonstick cooking spray. Line the bottom of each muffin cup with the ground sausage.
Step 3 – Then top with the diced green bell pepper and the shredded cheese.
Step 4 – Pour the egg mixture over the top of these ingredients in the muffin tins.
- Step 5 – Then bake for 22-25 minutes or until the eggs are set. Let them cool about 5 minutes. (They will flatten a little as they cool).
- Step 6 – Serve immediately or refrigerator or freeze the leftovers for an easy breakfast.
Recipe Tips
- Grease Pan – They literally start to pop out of the pan and this tells you they are done. By greasing the pan this helps for serving and for clean up. You can also use paper liners or a silicone muffin pan.
- Serving – Allow to cool for a few minutes and serve. They will flatten a bit as the cool.
Frequently Asked Questions
You can easily freeze these egg muffins. Just place in a freeze bag or freezer safe container. I suggest you letting them thaw over night in the fridge and then reheating in the microwave for a super easy morning.
You can make a bunch of them ahead of time and then keep them in your fridge to use on other mornings. They heat up in minutes for quick and easy breakfasts.
Once the egg bites have cooled to room temperature, place in an airtight container and place in the fridge. They will stay fresh for up to 4 days. If you prefer longer, I would place in the freezer.
