Bacon Egg and Cheese Muffin

Bacon Egg and Cheese Muffin Recipe

My boys and husband love breakfast. And not a bagle or bowl of cereal, they want a big breakfast with eggs, bacon, biscuits… I’m not much of a breakfast person and am good with a slice of toast at most. Getting in the kitchen first thing in the morning is not very fun either. So today I bring you one of my favorite easy meals that combines everything my family loves without all the work. I have been seeing pictures of these egg style muffins floating around the internet, so I had to try and create them myself.

We have been making them here for a few weeks and they are always a huge hit with the kids, maybe more along the lines of epic. They love the “mini meal” and it reminds them of cupcakes. I love that it is a throw together style meal and I can whip these together fast. The prep takes 5 minutes and cook time is 30. Cook time allows for you to do all those more important morning tasks instead of hovering over a stove…love!!

For our family of 5, I make 8 muffins, the little guys only eat one a piece. But you can adjust to how many you want and need for your family. My husband and older son usually have two maybe three. You will need a Bacon slice for each muffin, eggs (use 6 eggs -for 8 muffins), shredded cheese of your choice, cooking spray and muffin tin.

Preheat oven 350 degrees.

Spray a good layer of cooking spray on the tin, to keep everything from sticking. Place one strip of bacon in a ring in each muffin. (I don’t cover the bottom, just the inner ring.) Whisk eggs in a bowl and fill each bacon filled muffin tin about 3/4 full. Sprinkle with your favorite shredded cheese ( I love a good cheddar cheese or mozzarella.
