Bacon-Wrapped Egg Muffins
Ingredients
  • cooking spray
  • 12 slices bacon
  • 10 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions
  • 1/4 cup diced jalapeno peppers
  • 1/4 cup diced roasted red peppers
  • 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the optimal temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius, if you prefer metric).
2
Next, take a moment to prepare your baking vessel by spraying it with cooking spray to ensure easy removal of the finished muffins.
3
Now, place a few slices of crispy bacon on a microwave-safe plate and subject them to high-intensity heat for 75 seconds. This will render the bacon perfectly cooked.
4
To assemble your muffin cups, place a single slice of cooked bacon around the edges of each cup, creating a delicious crust.
5
In a separate bowl, combine eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a harmonious union. Spoon this mixture into each muffin cup, filling them to the brim.
6
For added flavor and texture, sprinkle a specific amount of green onions over four muffin cups - approximately one tablespoon. Repeat this process with jalapeño peppers, sprinkling another tablespoon over four muffin cups. Finally, sprinkle one tablespoon of roasted red pepper over the remaining four muffin cups.
7
Place your muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake until the tops are only slightly moist, a process that should take around 20 minutes.
8
Once your muffins have reached the desired level of doneness, sprinkle a generous helping of Cheddar cheese over them. Return the muffins to the oven and continue baking until the eggs are fully cooked through and the cheese is melted, adding a further 5 minutes to your overall baking time.
