Egg Muffins
You know how kids are with food? So picky right? They love, love, love something and eat it day and night then the next week you are all on top of it and stock up at the grocery store. In your mind you are all like “Go me!” Then that week comes and your child turns up their nose at the mention of that certain food and decides that something else is the best thing since sliced bread. Been there? I know I have.
You are stuck with that overstocked item in your fridge and you stare at it wondering what to do with it or in the pantry. At least in the pantry you can leave it and hope they come back to it!
Currently Miss K is stuck on a few things. She’s gone back to her yogurt loving tendencies. Last summer she ate so much yogurt I thought she was going to turn into yogurt and then suddenly she wanted nothing to do with it. Maybe it’s a seasonal love for her?
I’m currently out of it and I’m dreading tomorrow because I guarantee you she will be asking for it. There might be an emergency run to the grocery store which I avoid at all costs. I’m a strict one time per week shopper if at all possible. Obviously sometimes I need to frequent it more often but whenever I do that I buy way to much food and it seriously backfires!
How long do Egg Muffins last?
- Stored in the refrigerator these will last up to a week! Of course they won’t really last that long because they will most certainly be gone before that! 😋
Egg Muffin Recipe
Sometimes I’m a bit of a kid myself and I tend to get stuck on specific foods. Usually it tends to be the delicious pan of bars that I just made. Not so healthy is it? Luckily for me my new obsession is these delicious Ham & Cheese Muffins. Seriously, so amazing. I love having them in the morning with my Bulletproof Coffee.
They are mind blowing. I know you’ve probably seen recipes for these around the web and I hesitated in posting them because they’ve been “done”, but I had never made them before this and I thought, if I hadn’t made them, then I’m guessing there are a few of you that haven’t made them either.
I would like to fix this terrible injustice by posting them so you can enjoy them too!

Lately I’ve also been trying to shed the last of the baby weight and eat healthier to and these are the perfect solution. These are light and fluffy plus only about 100 calories per muffin and are loaded with protein. They fill me up and leave me satisfied. This Egg Muffin Recipe is a must in my life when eating healthier. There is nothing worse than being hungry and miserable in my eyes.
Can you eat this egg muffin recipe cold?
- Yes, you certainly can. But I make an entire batch and tuck then in the refrigerator. Then when I want one, I pop them in the microwave when I need to warm one or two up for a snack. They warm up great!
This is another food that Miss K is obsessed with right now. She loves eggs in the first place but thinks it’s so cool to eat these. I love that she can pick them up and eat them with no problem. Usually the first pan never makes it through the week and I have to make another batch half way through the week!
How do you make Breakfast Egg Muffins?

How long do I bake these? I don’t see it on the video or on this page 🙂
Sorry! It’s there now!
Can these be made ahead and frozen and then microwaved on school mornings or is it best to just refrigerate?
They are great made ahead and popped into the refrigerator. They reheat great in the microwave!
How long will these keep in the fridge?
About three days!
OMG! These are so simple – why don’t I already make these? I will be doing this over and over again!
Enjoy them! It’s our go to breakfast!
I love egg muffins! They are so easy and everyone loves them. They are also great for weekends!
Yes they are! Love that they reheat great IF you have any left!
These are the best….made them for a friend who had knee-replacement surgery for a quick and easy breakfast treat with toast and fruit. Make many batches when I go to Elkhorn, NE as my friend is a school teacher, has a son and 5 year-old twin boys. A dozen doesn’t lasts long so we freeze them. Yum Also make them for friends who don’t or can’t cook much.
We go through multiple batches a week here! I love that you are sharing them. Warms my heart!
Dying to try these but need some veggies! Would it mess anything up if I added a little onion/green pepper/spinach?
I would just saute the veggies and then add them!
Going to make them tonight for tomorrow morning
I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!
I am trying these for the first time so my husband has breakfast for work. Am I able to freeze them? I plan on making a bulk batch.
Yes you can freeze them!
Just made these for brunch today. Great basic recipe that I believe can be modified to anyone’s taste. Will be making these again!
So glad you enjoyed them!
So easy and delicious! Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed them!
