Fluffy Egg Cups Ingredients :
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk (or cream)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup cheese (cheddar, feta, etc.), shredded or crumbled
- 1 cup vegetables (spinach, bell peppers, etc.), diced
- Optional: cooked bacon or sausage, chopped herbs
How to make Fluffy Egg Cups :
Preheat Oven: Preheat to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin.
Whisk Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
Add Fillings: Stir in cheese, vegetables, and any optional ingredients.
Fill Muffin Cups: Pour the mixture into muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake: Bake for 18-20 minutes until puffed and set.
Fillings:
Vegetables: Sautéing vegetables before adding them can enhance their flavor and prevent excess moisture from making the eggs soggy.
Cheese: Choose cheeses that melt well, like cheddar, mozzarella, or feta, but don’t overdo it—too much cheese can weigh the eggs down.
Cool and Serve: Let cool slightly, then enjoy warm or store in the fridge for later.
Recipe Notes :
Customize Your Fillings: Feel free to add ingredients like sautéed spinach, diced bell peppers, or crumbled bacon to enhance the flavor.
Cheese Options: Experiment with different cheeses such as cheddar, mozzarella, or feta to find your favorite combination.
Storage Tips: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for a quick breakfast on the go.
Freezing: These egg cups freeze well. Wrap each one individually and store in a freezer-safe bag or container. Reheat in the microwave or oven when ready to eat.
