Make These Bacon & Mushroom Breakfast Egg Muffins

I always start by gathering all of the ingredients needed in a recipe and weighing and measuring everything before I start to cook or bake. This part is really important and key in keeping everything organized.


To make these bacon & mushroom breakfast egg muffins you start by positioning your oven rack in the center of the oven and grease 2x standard 12 cup muffin pans. This recipe yields 18 muffins.

Then you heat oil in a medium large pan over medium high heat and cook the bacon and mushrooms until starting to brown. About 5 minutes. Add in the minced garlic and cook until fragrant. About 1 minute. Take the skillet off the heat.

Lightly beat the eggs in a large bowl and then add in all of the remaining ingredients until combined.

Pour or scoop the mixture into the muffin cups filling them about 3/4.

Bake for 14-15 minutes or until set and the top is lightly golden brown.

Run a knife along the sides of the muffins to remove from the pan.

Highly Customizable Egg Muffins

Egg muffins make the perfect breakfast, snack or anytime meal. They are quick, healthy, easy and nutritious. You can add any type of meats, herbs, vegetables and cheeses you want. All you need is 10 eggs, grated cheese and any add ins of choice.

How To Store Egg Muffins?

Refrigerator:

Store any egg muffins leftovers in an airtight container or a Ziploc bag in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.

Freezer:

Wrap individually in plastic wrap and freeze in an airtight container or Ziploc bag for up to 2-3 months.

How To Reheat Egg Muffins?

From Refrigerator:

Reheat in the microwave for 20-30 seconds until heated through.

From Freezer:

Unwrap from plastic wrap and heat in the microwave for 80-90 seconds until heated through.

Notes & Substitutions

Vegetable Oil: Instead of vegetable oil you can use any type of oil or butter.

Bacon: Try using ham instead bacon. Or any other meats you want.

Mushrooms:  Seeing as these breakfast egg muffins are very customizable you can use any type of vegetables you want in this recipe.

Garlic: I use minced garlic cloves in this recipe because I think it gives the fried mushrooms a great flavor. But you can also use 1 teaspoon garlic powder instead.

Grated Cheddar: You can use any other grated cheese you want.
