Description

These egg cups are freezer and kid-friendly, allowing busy families to get some extra morning sleep. Prepare ahead of time and warm in the microwave for a scrumptious, on-the-go solution for a hearty and plentiful breakfast!

Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs, beaten
  • 2 tbsp milk or water (optional)
  • 1 1/2 C refrigerated or frozen potato hash shreds
  • 1 C spinach, chopped
  • 1 whole red bell pepper, diced (~1 C)
  • 1/4 of a medium yellow onion, diced (~1/4 C)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 12 tsp shredded cheddar cheese, 1 tsp per muffin cup
  • cooking spray

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Spray a muffin tin generously with cooking oil. Make sure the sides are well covered to decrease the chance of them sticking.
  3. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk until smooth and uniform. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  4. Chop the onions, bell pepper, and spinach. Add the potato shreds and fold them into the whisked egg mixture.
  5. Portion the vegetable-egg mixture into the 12 cups, with approximately 2 oz in each well, filling the wells ¾ of the way. Top each well with 1 tsp of shredded cheddar cheese.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Serve with your favorite hot sauce and enjoy!

Variations

Note: These egg cups are extremely versatile. See a vegetable you are not a fan of? Swap them out for a flavor profile you enjoy. These can be prepared ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. To reheat, place your desired amount of egg cups on a microwave-safe plate. Reheat gently in the microwave until warmed through, about 30 seconds (if thawed) and 1-2 minutes (if frozen). Increase the reheating time by 30 seconds for each additional cup on the plate.
