Directions Step 1 Preheat oven to 350F. Generously spray 12 cups of a regular muffin tin with cooking spray. Step 2 In a large bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the eggs and set aside. Cut and dice the bell peppers, making sure to discard the tops. Step 3 In a medium bowl, add the diced bell peppers, shredded mozzarella cheese, salt, black pepper, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and ground cumin. Mix together with a fork until fully combined. Evenly distribute and scoop the bell pepper mixture into each muffin cup. Step 4 Fill each muffin cup about three quarters full with whisked eggs. Bake for 18-20 minutes, until the the eggs are cooked through. Let cool for 10 minutes, then use a toothpick and a spoon to loosen the sides and lift them out. Farm Team Tips: These egg cups can all be made ahead and reheated as needed. To store in the fridge for up to 5 days, place the muffins in an airtight container until ready to eat. When you’re ready to heat them up, heat them in the microwave in 15-second increments on high until they’re completely warmed through. If you’re making a large batch and you don’t think you’ll finish all of them in 5 days, you can also freeze them. Once completely cooled, individually wrap each egg cup with plastic wrap, then place all the cups in a freezer-safe zip top storage bag and freeze. Reheat in the microwave on high in 15-second increments until fully warmed through. Rate this Recipe Share this Recipe How much did you enjoy this recipe? How much did you enjoy this recipe?

Anyone else have this situation? Trying to decide if I should reduce the amt of veggies in the cups and just make 1 ½ doz. Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. Tara June 23, 2020 Helps use eggs when my hens are laying more than I can eat. Then when they are taking a break I don't have to run to the store Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch. 1 Reply [email protected] June 24, 2020 This is one of our favorite ways to use extra eggs as well, Tara. These are just as good reheated as they are fresh out of the oven! Reply Page 1 Created with Sketch.
