Easy Breakfast Egg Muffins with Bacon

These 30 minute breakfast egg muffins are an easy, low carb, keto friendly breakfast on the go and perfect for meal prep!

I'm not a morning person, y'all. School starts before eight in our town which means I have to get three kids dressed, fed, and lunches packed and out the door all by seven.

Luckily I started making these delicious Breakfast Egg Muffins so we can have breakfast on the go when we don't have time to make our favorite scrambled eggs recipe!

Why I love this recipe

The recipe I'm sharing today, Bacon & Cheese Egg Muffins, is a variation on one of my more popular recipes for Muffin Tin Eggs from about three years ago. They are great for so many reasons!

They have only four ingredients and can be made in just thirty minutes. I like to whip up a couple of batches on Sunday and store them in the fridge for fast breakfasts during the week.

These egg muffins are like scrambled eggs in a to-go form. They are fast to heat up too! Just a minute in the microwave and they are ready to go!

Ingredients

• eggs
• milk
• shredded cheese
• bacon

Step by step

These egg muffins are very simple to make.

1. Mix up your ingredients in a bowl and then pour into a muffin pan and bake.

Tips for best results

• I like to use a silicone muffin pan but if you have a standard muffin tin you can either spray it with nonstick spray or use cupcake liners. If you decide to go the muffin liner route, use the high quality ones so they don't stick to the eggs.
• Pour the egg mixture only ¾ of the way full as the eggs rise as they bake.
• Let the muffins cool 10-15 minutes before removing from the pan so they can set. Run a butter knife or thin spatula around the edges to help it release if needed.

Flavor variations

If you would like to customize this recipe it's very easy. You can add lots of things to the egg mixture before baking to change up the flavor:

Serving suggestions

Depending on the flavors you choose for your egg muffins you could top with pico de gallo, sour cream, hot sauce, chopped avocado, or fresh herbs. You really can get creative with them!
