Kim’s Tips:
-
- You can use precooked bacon to save time. Make sure it’s crumbled into small pieces.
- Whisk the eggs first to ensure they are combined properly and no white or clear spots remain.
- Distribute the egg mixer using a measuring cup with a spout in order to create less cleanup.
- If you want a firmer egg muffin, increase the baking time by a few minutes.
- For extra protein and a slightly different texture, blend up some cottage cheese and whisk it into the egg mixture.
*Storing, Freezing, and Reheating:
- Storing: Store leftover egg and bacon muffins in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days.
- Reheating: To reheat, place them in a microwave-safe dish and heat for 60-90 seconds or until heated through. You can also bake them at 350°F for about 15 minutes.
- Freezing: These egg muffins can also be frozen for up to two months if stored in an airtight container or freezer-safe bag. Let them thaw overnight in the fridge and then reheat as directed above.
