Description

Delicious and fluffy egg bites packed with broccoli, cheddar cheese, and green onions.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup broccoli florets, finely chopped
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onions

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil or nonstick spray.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, warm olive oil and sauté broccoli for 3–4 minutes until slightly tender. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  4. Fold in the cooked broccoli, cheddar cheese, and green onions until evenly distributed.
  5. Evenly pour the egg mixture into the prepared muffin tin. Fill each cup about three-quarters full.
