Ingredients
  

  • 8 large Eggs
  • 8 slices Bacon
  • 2/3 cup (65 g / 2.29 oz) Green onions, finely chopped
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • For easier cleanup and guaranteed non-stick results, use silicone muffin liners.
  • Feel free to customize by adding a 1/2 cup (480 ml) of shredded cheddar cheese, diced bell peppers, or sautéed spinach for extra flavor.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds.
  • For fluffier eggs, add a tablespoon of milk or heavy cream to the egg mixture before whisking.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease a 12-cup standard muffin tin with cooking spray or butter.
  3. Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp.
  4. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
  5. Once cooled, crumble or chop it into small pieces.
  6. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth.
  7. Stir in the crumbled bacon, chopped green onions, and a pinch of salt and pepper until everything is well combined.
  8. Carefully pour the egg mixture into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full to allow for rising.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set in the center and lightly golden on top. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
  10. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before running a knife around the edges to loosen.
  11. Serve warm.
