Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.25 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 slices Cooked bacon
- 0.25 cups Chopped bell peppers
- 1 tablespoon Chopped green onions
- 0.5 teaspoons Butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease 4 cups of a standard muffin tin with butter.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, cooked and crumbled bacon, chopped bell peppers, and green onions. Mix until evenly distributed.
Carefully pour the egg mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full to allow room for the eggs to puff up as they cook.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg cups are set and have a slight golden edge.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the egg cups cool for 2-3 minutes. Use a small silicone spatula or butter knife to gently loosen the edges and lift them out of the tin.
Serve warm, and enjoy your delicious scrambled egg cups with a side of toast or fresh fruit!
