Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 0.25 cup milk
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup cooked breakfast sausage, crumbled
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- cooking spray
- 0.25 cup chopped green onions
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly spray a muffin tin with cooking spray to prevent the egg bites from sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the milk until well combined and smooth.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled sausage, salt, black pepper, and chopped green onions into the egg mixture.
Divide the mixture evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and lightly golden on top.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the egg bites cool for a few minutes before removing them from the tin.
Serve the sausage and cheese egg bites warm, or allow them to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
