The method

Step by step

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).

    About 5 min

  2. 2

    Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil.

    About 1 min

    Cook’s note: Ensure all cups are well-greased to prevent sticking.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until well combined and slightly frothy.

    About 2 min

  4. 4

    Stir in the bell pepper, spinach, and yellow onion into the egg mixture.

    About 2 min

    Cook’s note: Make sure the vegetables are evenly distributed.

  5. 5

    Season with sea salt and black pepper.

  6. 6

    Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.

    About 2 min

    Cook’s note: Do not overfill, as the eggs will puff up during baking.

  7. 7

    Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the egg muffins are set and lightly golden brown around the edges.

    About 20 min

    Cook’s note: A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.

  8. 8

    Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the egg muffins cool for a few minutes before removing them from the cups.

    About 3 min

    Cook’s note: They will release more easily once slightly cooled.
