Delicious hot and cold they are great for breakfast on the go and can of course be made the night before if this makes it easier.

Adapting the muffins

If you want to change this recipe up a bit you can swap around the vegetables to add different flavours.

I would always recommend however avoiding watery vegetables like mushrooms and tomatoes as they tend to prevent the muffins from setting as well.

To add a bit of a kick you could also add a pinch of chilli powder or some chilli flakes!

Choosing vegetables for breakfast egg muffins

When it comes to breakfast egg muffins, the right vegetables can make all the difference. Not only do they add delicious flavours and textures, but they also provide essential nutrients to start your day off right.

So, which vegetables should you choose? Well, in my experience, the best ones for egg muffins are bell peppers, spinach, onions, mushrooms, and tomatoes.

Bell peppers add a sweet crunch, spinach adds a pop of green, onions add a savoury bite, mushrooms add a meaty texture, and tomatoes add a juicy burst of flavour. Just remember to limit the amount of tomatoes and mushrooms to avoid them making your muffins watery.

Of course, you can always mix and match to find your own perfect combination of veggies. Trust me, once you try these breakfast egg muffins, you’ll never want to skip breakfast again!
