TIPS FOR BAKING EGG & VEGGIE MUFFIN OMELETS
I like to make my baked egg omelets using cupcake papers sprayed with non-stick spray. You can bake them directly in the muffin pan but be sure to spray the pan first. They will still likely stick just a little bit.
Fill the muffins cups about 2/3 full. Eggs will rise but not too much. Adding a bit of milk to the eggs before mixing will help them to rise better and be a little more fluffy.
PRE-COOK THE MEAT
If you want to add meat to your Baked Egg Omelets be sure to cook it first then chop into small pieces. Add the meat along with the veggies into the scrambled eggs.
You can still keep this easy recipe under 30 minutes if you use precooked meats which are a convenience item found in the meat department at the grocery store. Even microwave bacon will work since it is ready in seconds and crumbles easily.
Chop all veggie and meat additions in to small pieces so they won’t hinder cooking time.
MAKE FLUFFY BAKED EGG OMELETS
Personally I like to cut down on the milk products I consume so I don’t add milk to my eggs but about 1 Tbsp. of milk will make fluffier baked omelets.
If you are adding chopped meat and want more veggies, add the milk to increase the density of your baked egg omelets.

Notes
Add about 1 Tbsp. of milk for fluffier eggs.
If you are making less and you have empty spots in your muffin pan, be sure to put some water into those empty spots prior to baking which will prevent your pan from warping.
