Recipe Tips

  • Baby spinach works best and it should be chopped smaller so it’s easier to bite into. I recommend using fresh spinach, not frozen to avoid excess water and moisture.
  • White button or crimini brown mushrooms will work for these quiche muffins. Save time using pre-sliced mushrooms.
  • Customize by adding some fresh basil, sliced cherry tomatoes, or bell peppers into the recipe.
  • Flavor the recipe with herbs like dried thyme and onion powder. Or make it spicy with red pepper flakes or chili powder.
  • Serve with salsa, hot sauce, or ketchup, on toast or in between an English muffin like my freezer breakfast sandwiches.

How To Store Leftovers

  • Refrigerate – Store these egg cups in an airtight container, or tightly wrapped in plastic in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
  • To freeze – Wrap each muffin in plastic wrap, then place them in a large freezer bag or container. Remove as much air as possible. These can be frozen for up to 3 months for maximum freshness. Let them thaw in the fridge overnight, or on the counter for about 1 hour.
  • To reheat – Egg muffins can be reheated for 30-60 seconds in the microwave and ready to eat.

Can this be baked in a Pyrex dish? I only have a muffin tin with 6 cups.

Yes it should be fine. I'm not sure how long it will take. It would be similar to my mushroom frittata recipe: https://andianne.com/crustless-quiche-mushrooms/
