Just whisk the ingredients together, pop them in the oven, and finish getting ready for your day while they bake. Twenty minutes later you have these wonderfully delicious frittatas. Pair them with a slice of whole grain toast and fresh fruit for a filling, nourishing breakfast for your family.

love making batches of egg muffins and keeping them in the freezer for those mornings we’re rushing out the door!
It never occurred to me to make these wonderful little frittatas like this. I only started making baked eggs in a muffin tin after you posted the delicious idea so now I will do this too. Thanks for another great recipe, Marie. Hope you’re staying warm!
Yum! I make a similar version w/ quinoa. Love the addition of Greek Yogurt for some extra protein !
