Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 50 ml milk
- 6 slices of ham/smoked bacon (see notes)
- half a red pepper or whole romano pepper or 1 tomato deseeded and roughly chopped
- 50 g strong cheddar grated
- chives or spring onions thinly sliced
- salt and pepper to taste
- rapeseed oil/olive oil for greasing muffin tin cups
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas Mark 4.
- Spray muffin tin with a little oil and make sure all the muffin cups are well greased by distributing oil evenly all around with your fingers.
- Line each muffin cup with slice of ham, bacon or anything you like.
- Deseed and roughly chop your pepper or tomato.
- Distribute chopped pepper/tomato evenly between muffin cups and follow by grated cheddar and finely chopped chives.
- Whisk the eggs together with milk and season well with salt and pepper.
- Pour the egg mixture little by little into muffin tin cups, distributing it evenly until it's all gone.
- Bake in preheated oven for approx. 25 minutes until browned and slightly puffed up (they will collapse as they cool).
- Let them cool in the muffin tin before taking them out as they are then easier to remove. Prise gently with a knife if required.
- Enjoy warm or cold!
Notes
- Nutritional information is approximate, per one egg muffin and should be treated as a rough guideline only.
- This recipe is extremely adaptable so feel free to make substitutions and use whatever protein and veg you like. You can also make these 100% vegetarian if you want.
- For best results bake them in well greased, non-stick or silicone muffin tin, don't use paper muffin cases and let them cool in the tin before trying to remove them.
- Store in the airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
- Easily reheated in the microwave but take care not to overdo it as they'll become rubbery.
