Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 12 egg muffins

Number Of Ingredients 10

Nonstick cooking spray
10 large eggs
2 teaspoons kosher salt (see Cook's Note)
8 ounces cooked ground sausage (sweet Italian, spicy, chorizo)
9 mini sweet peppers (about 9 ounces), cut into 1/2-inch pieces, sautéed until tender
12 strips cooked bacon, crumbled into large pieces
6 slices American cheese, crumbled into large pieces
3/4 cup shredded cooked chicken (about 8 ounces)
3 tablespoons Buffalo chicken sauce
3/4 cup crumbled blue cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
  • Crack the eggs into a large bowl, add the salt and whisk to combine. Divide the mixture evenly among the muffin cups. Top with desired variation ingredients. Bake until the centers of the muffins no longer jiggle, 17 to 20 minutes.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Run a knife around the edges of the muffins, unmold and serve. If storing, allow to cool completely, place in a resealable plastic bag and refrigerate or freeze.
  • To reheat, microwave the muffins one at a time for about 30 seconds if refrigerated, 1 minute if frozen. You can also heat them in a 250-degree-F oven until warmed through.

Tips:

  • Prep Ahead: Save time in the morning by preparing your breakfast bites the night before or over the weekend. Store them in the refrigerator or freezer until ready to enjoy.
  • Versatile Ingredients: Feel free to customize your breakfast bites with your favorite ingredients. Try different types of vegetables, cheeses, meats, and spices to create unique flavors.
  • Muffin Tins: Standard muffin tins are perfect for making breakfast bites. You can also use mini muffin tins for smaller bites or a loaf pan for a breakfast loaf.
  • Baking Time: Keep an eye on your breakfast bites while baking. The cooking time may vary depending on the size of your bites and your oven. Insert a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, they're done.
  • Serve with Sides: Breakfast bites are delicious on their own, but you can also serve them with your favorite sides like fresh fruit, yogurt, or a side salad.

Conclusion:

Make-ahead breakfast bites are a convenient and delicious way to start your day. With a variety of recipes to choose from, you're sure to find something that suits your taste and dietary preferences.
