Pro Tips for Making the Recipe
Here are some of my favorite tips to ensure your Loaded Egg Muffins turn out perfectly:
- Use a silicone muffin tin for easy removal and less mess.
- Experiment with different vegetables and proteins to keep things interesting.
- If you’re watching your weight, consider using egg whites or a mix of whole eggs and egg whites.
- For a flavor boost, add herbs like chives or parsley to the egg mixture.
- Don’t overfill the muffin cups; they will puff up while baking!
