Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup broccoli florets, chopped
- 3 green onions, chopped
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil or non-stick spray.
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced bell pepper and chopped broccoli florets. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until they start to soften.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well combined. Stir in the sautéed vegetables, green onions, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper.
Carefully pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about three-quarters full to allow room for rising.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the egg muffins are set and slightly golden on top.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before removing the egg muffins.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
