Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Small flour tortillas
- 6 pieces Large eggs
- 3 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 slices Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 1 cup Diced bell peppers
- 0.5 cup Chopped green onions
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Spray a standard muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Warm the tortillas slightly in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to make them pliable.
Gently press each tortilla into a muffin tin cup, folding and overlapping the edges as needed to form a cup shape.
Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of shredded cheddar cheese into the bottom of each tortilla cup.
Crack one egg directly into each tortilla cup. Be careful not to break the yolk unless you prefer scrambled-style eggs.
Top the eggs with a sprinkle of crumbled bacon, diced bell peppers, and chopped green onions. Adjust portions based on your preference.
Season each cup lightly with salt and black pepper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set to your desired doneness. For a runny yolk, check after 15 minutes.
Carefully remove the tortilla cups from the muffin tin using a spoon or spatula and transfer to a plate.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious egg-filled tortilla cups. Optionally, garnish with additional cheese or fresh herbs like cilantro.
