Egg "Muffins"


This is a tried and true recipe, and I love it! Especially for pre-teen sleep over's or for an informal, interactive brunch.


These are also great to make ahead of time so you can have breakfast - on the go for the week. Get creative and make them to suit your taste. Don't limit yourself - experiment with different cheeses, veggies and toppings.


My favorite add-ins are chopped spinach, diced tomato, garlic, fontina topped with fried onions. YUM!


Egg Muffins

Shopping List
Large Eggs
Half and Half
Add-ins (this part is up to you!)
Tabasco (optional)
Non-stick cooking spray


Equipment
Muffin Tin
Whisk
Chef's Knife
Measuring cups
Measuring spoons


Ingredients
8 large eggs
1 C. Half and Half
1/2 tsp. Salt
1/2 tsp. Pepper
3 shots of Tabasco
Add-Ins (chopped ham, shredded cheese, diced veggies, sausage, bacon - get creative!)

Heat your oven to 350. Spray each cup of the muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, half and half and S&P. Evenly distribute the egg mixture in each muffin cup. Add about 2 TBSP. of your add-ins. Bake until golden and puffy, about 20 - 25 minutes. They should pop right out (for stubborn ones, run a butter knife around the edge to loosen).

I made these for my daughter's 12th birthday. I put the egg mixture into the muffin tin and let each girl add their own toppings. The girls loved making their own, customized Egg Muffin!

Enjoy!
