Healthy Egg Muffins – 4 Ways

Healthy Egg Muffins make an incredible meal prep breakfast that can be made ahead of time! Here are four different versions–find your favorite!

Have you tried egg muffins? They’ve been floating around the Internet for a few years now, and I’ve tried several versions, but haven’t shared any of them here on the blog.

Today I’m sharing my four favorite healthy egg muffins recipes that are perfect for make ahead breakfast! These are super easy to whip up and I can’t think of an easier way to sneak some veggies into your breakfast. Ya’ll know how my ultimate goal is to eat more plants everyday.

The base of these eggs muffins is simply eggs whisked with salt and pepper, and then you can customize your muffins with different add-ins. Here’s what I went with for these four versions:

What’s Inside These Healthy Egg Muffins

• Broccoli + Cheddar–the classic combination works so well here!
• Red Bell Peppers + Goat Cheese–this is my favorite.
• Spinach + Parmesan Cheese–because you need to eat more greens.
• Tomato + Parmesan + Cheddar Cheese–a lovely combination.

I put cheese in all of them because I really think these taste so much better with cheese. If you want/need to have them be dairy-free, simply leave the cheese out. I’ve made them without and while I don’t like them as much, they are still good.

How to Make Healthy Egg Muffins

These really couldn’t be much easier to make. Start with a dozen eggs. Crack ’em in a bowl and then add some salt and pepper.

Whisk them together really well.

Now you get your add-ins. Add them to a muffin tin. I like to use these silicone muffin cups because I think it’s a safer material than what most muffin tins are made from, and they also make for the easiest clean up.

Once you’ve got your add-ins in the cups, you just need to add the eggs. Your muffin cups will be filled to almost the top. Don’t fill them all the way to the top or the egg will spill over.

Now you’re ready to put them in the oven. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes, until the eggs are set. These little egg muffins are like mini frittatas that happen to be portable and perfect for quick breakfasts!

These egg muffins will keep in the refrigerator for 3-4 days, and you can also freeze them for up to 2 months.

Here’s the printable recipe for you! I hope you love these as much as I do.
