Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Add milk, cheese, salt and ground black pepper (as preferred). Stir together.
- Spray muffin tin (6 cups) with vegetable oil cooking spray.
- Fill each cup with egg mixture.
- Reduce oven temperature to 375. Bake 15 minutes. Muffins will rise dramatically while baking and... deflate dramatically while cooling.
- Cool baked egg muffins 15 minutes. Place in a zippered bag or lidded container. Refrigerate up to 3 days.
- Warm in the microwave for 5 seconds or in a preheated (400) oven for 5 minutes.
- Break one crispy bacon strip in half. Place both pieces in center of each egg muffin. Repeat until all six muffins have two pieces of bacon inserted in center.
- Serve immediately. Or allow to cool. Place in airtight container and refrigerate. Reheat in microwave for 2-3 seconds or in a preheated 400 degree oven for 5 minutes.
Notes
VARIATION: Place crumbled cooked bacon in egg mixture before baking. Crisp cooked bacon is best.  Soft bacon will be too chewy. This variation keeps well in the refrigerator.
