Egg Recipes For Breakfast
Be sure to check out the recipe video I did for Smithfield HERE.
These egg bites are also called egg muffins. Basically, scrambled eggs baked inside muffin cups. They are so convenient for the kids to eat on the go if needed. If they can sit and enjoy breakfast together I like to serve them with a little side of fruit to go with them.
You’ll start by using a nice large mixing bowl and whisk. I have a big Pyrex bowl I use for most of my egg recipes that works great. Give your eggs a nice whisk and then add the seasonings, green onions and tomatoes.
Continue adding the bacon and shedded cheddar cheese. Give a good stir until well combined.
Spray your muffin cups with cooking spray and find you 1/3 measuring cup. This size works great to transfer the egg mixture to the muffin cups. Fill muffin cups 3/4 full with egg mixture.
Bake at 350 degrees F. for 25 minutes or until puffed and eggs are set.
Tips For Serving
- Serve with a side of fresh fruit.
- You can also serve along side a stack of pancakes.
- These egg bites are convenient to take to go if needed.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container. Refrigerate up to 3-4 days.
