Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 8 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Add-ins
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 1/3 cup Kalamata olives, chopped
- 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 green onions, sliced
Other
- Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat and prepare tin: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix eggs and seasonings: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and dried oregano until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
- Add flavorings: Stir in the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, Kalamata olives, crumbled feta cheese, and sliced green onions until evenly distributed throughout the egg mixture.
- Fill muffin cups: Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full to allow room for the muffins to rise.
- Bake muffins: Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the muffins are set in the center and lightly golden on the edges.
- Cool and serve: Remove from the oven and allow muffins to cool for 5 minutes before carefully removing them from the tin. Serve warm or at room temperature.
