🧁 Spinach & Feta Egg Muffins
Ingredients (Makes 10–12 muffins)
-
8 large eggs
-
½ cup (120 ml) milk (or cream for richer texture)
-
1 cup (30 g) fresh spinach, chopped (or thawed frozen spinach, well-drained)
-
½ cup (75 g) feta cheese, crumbled
-
¼ cup (30 g) shredded mozzarella or cheddar (optional for extra cheesiness)
-
½ small onion, finely chopped (optional)
-
1 clove garlic, minced
-
½ tsp salt
-
¼ tsp black pepper
-
Optional add-ins: diced tomatoes, bell peppers, mushrooms, or cooked bacon bits
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Preheat & prep
-
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Lightly grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray or silicone liners.
2. Sauté (optional for more flavor)
-
In a skillet, sauté onion and garlic for 2–3 minutes until soft.
-
Add spinach and cook until wilted.
-
Set aside to cool slightly. (If using fresh spinach raw, just chop finely and squeeze out moisture.)
3. Mix the eggs
-
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth.
-
Stir in feta, mozzarella, and the spinach mixture (plus any add-ins).
4. Fill and bake
-
Divide the mixture evenly among muffin cups (about ¾ full).
-
Bake 18–22 minutes, or until the centers are set and lightly golden.
-
Cool for 5 minutes, then gently remove from the pan.
5. Serve or store
-
Serve warm or at room temperature.
-
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze for 2 months.
-
Reheat in the microwave for 30–45 seconds.
💡 Tips & Variations
-
Creamier muffins: Add a couple tablespoons of cottage cheese to the mix.
-
Mediterranean twist: Add sun-dried tomatoes or olives with the feta.
-
High-protein meal prep: Pair with sliced avocado or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
