Spring produce is slowly starting to make its way into our kitchens and we are already looking forward to fresh seasonal vegetables and fruits. As we’re already thinking about what this year’s green season will offer us in desserts and main dishes, we thought it was time to bring some freshness, newness and colour to our breakfasts too. Prepare these gorgeous, golden brown and supple egg muffins with vegetables to serve as a hot breakfast, snack or appetizer for the table.
Egg muffins with vegetables
What we will need:
- 6 eggs
- 100 ml whipping cream
- 2 tbsp oil
- 1 pk red pepper
- 1 pk yellow pepper
- 1 pc spring onion (bunch)
- 100 g ham
- 50 g hard cheese
- salt, ground black pepper to taste
How we will proceed:
1. Clean the peppers and cut into small cubes. Cut the spring onions and their sprigs into thin slices.
2. Grate the cheese on a coarse grater and cut the ham into cubes.
3. Preheat the oven to 200 °C.
4. Heat the oil in a frying pan and add the chopped vegetables and ham. Season with salt and pepper and roast until the vegetables are slightly softened, about 6 minutes.
5. Spoon the roasted vegetables and ham into a greased and floured muffin tin or paper cups or silicone moulds, about halfway through.
6. In a bowl, whisk the eggs and cream together and season lightly with salt and pepper. Pour the eggs over the vegetables, but leave room for the cheese.
7. Sprinkle the surface of the muffins with cheese and put them in the oven for about 20 minutes, until they are nicely brown and golden. Done!
