Description
Delicious and easy ham and cheese egg muffins perfect for breakfast or a quick snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups finely diced ham
- 1 1/3 cups finely grated Mexican Blend Cheese
- 1 green bell pepper, seeds and stem cut away and finely diced
- 3 thinly sliced green onions (optional, but recommended)
- 15 eggs, beaten well
- 2 tsp. Spike seasoning (or use any seasoning blend that is good with eggs)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F/190C.
- Spray silicone baking cups with nonstick spray.
- Dice ham and green pepper and slice green onions.
- In the bottom of the baking cups layer the ham, green pepper, green onions, and cheese, dividing each equally among the 12 baking cups.
- Break eggs into a bowl or large measuring cup that has a pour spout, then beat eggs and Spike Seasoning with a fork until they are well combined.
- Pour eggs over the other ingredients until the muffin cups are nearly full, but not quite reaching the top.
- Take a small fork and gently “stir” to distribute the ingredients in the egg mixture.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the egg mixture is set and starting to brown slightly.
- Egg muffins will keep well in the refrigerator for at least a week. They can be reheated in the microwave for 45-60 seconds.
Notes
- Check muffins after 22 minutes if you prefer them less browned.
- Do not freeze, as they release liquid when thawed.
- Microwave carefully to avoid rubbery texture.
