Now that we’re heading over to the ranch in the morning on most days of the week, I find that we need something fast and easy for breakfast. Muffins are always a favorite, so I decided to make a twist on traditional muffins. The result was an omelet muffin that could be made ahead and stored in the fridge for approximately 3 days. The omelet muffins can be easily personalized for different tastes and/or food allergies. It’s also a good way to use up extra veggies and/or meat that’s in the fridge.
This really is a throw together, use what you have type of recipe, so there are no real measurements for ingredients. For the omelet muffins pictured, I used onions, peppers, and mushrooms. Half of the omelet muffins had cheese and the other half didn’t as I’m currently dairy-free.
Omelet Muffin Recipe
Ingredients:
- Raw veggies
- Cooked Meat (if desired)
- Cheese (if desired)
- 1 Egg per muffin
- Milk (or dairy-free alternative)
- Salt
- Pepper
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Grease muffin tins with olive oil or coconut oil.
- Fill with your favorite omelet ingredients – veggies and/or meat. The veggies should go in raw while the meat should be precooked.
- Beat eggs (1 per muffin omelet) with a little milk (if dairy-free, use a milk alternative) and salt/pepper.
- Top with shredded cheese, if desired.
- Bake at 425 degrees for around 20 min.
- If you’re making these for later, cool completely before removing from tins. If you’re eating these now, allow to cool slightly before removing from tins and serving.
