3 Easy Breakfast Ideas:
Mini Muffin Tin Omelettes
Yields 24 mini muffin tin omelettes
Ingredients
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 small red pepper
- 5 large eggs
- ¼ cup half and half cream
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, plus 3 tbsp more for sprinkling
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 F. Lightly grease two mini muffin tins with butter and set aside.
- Steam broccoli until bright green and tender-crisp, about 2 to 3 minutes. Drain well and cool slightly. Chop into small pieces. Finely dice red pepper. Spoon a small amount of both the broccoli and red pepper into the bottom of each mini muffin mould.
- In a large bowl, whisk eggs until fluffy. Pour in cream and continue to whisk until light and well combined. Whisk in 1 cup grated cheddar cheese and season with salt and pepper.
- Transfer egg mixture to a measuring cup with a spout for easy pouring. Pour about 1 to 2 tbsp of the egg mixture over the broccoli and red pepper, filling each almost to the top.
- Carefully transfer muffin tins to a baking sheet and place in the oven. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until puffed and golden. Remove from oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
- These mini muffin tin omelettes are great served with toast and jam soldiers and fresh fruit salad with vanilla yogurt.
