Ingredients
Scale
Egg Base
- 6 large eggs
- 1 tsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar (natural)
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- Pinch of natural gelling agent
Mix-ins
- 4 slices smoked turkey bacon, chopped
- 1/2 cup plant-based cheese, shredded
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
Instructions
- Prep the Ingredients: Chop the smoked turkey bacon, onions, spinach, and cherry tomatoes into bite-sized pieces. This preparation step ensures a smooth and quick mixing process.
- Mix the Egg Base: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), apple cider vinegar (natural), salt, black pepper, and natural gelling agent until well combined to create a fluffy base.
- Combine All Ingredients: Add the chopped vegetables, smoked turkey bacon, and plant-based cheese to the egg mixture. Gently fold everything together carefully to evenly distribute the ingredients without breaking down the eggs.
- Pour into Muffin Tin: Lightly grease a muffin tin, then evenly pour the egg mixture into each cup, filling about 3/4 full to allow the muffins to rise without spilling.
- Bake and Cool: Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for approximately 20 minutes or until muffins are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the muffins cool slightly before removing them from the tin.
Notes
- Use fresh eggs for the best texture and shape retention.
- Fill muffin cups only up to 3/4 full to prevent mess and uneven cooking.
- Include moisture-rich veggies like spinach and tomatoes to keep muffins juicy.
- Pre-cook turkey bacon for optimal texture before mixing it in.
- Allow muffins to cool briefly to firm up and ease removal from the pan.
