Tips and Substitutions:

  1. Preferably use a silicone muffin pan- It makes it so much easier for omelette muffins to bake in these kind of pans. It’s also very easy to pop the muffins right out after they are done baking. 
  2. If you are using a silicone muffin pan, place it over a baking sheet pan- Silicone pans are very flimsy making it hard to transfer from the counter to the oven. Place it over a baking sheet pan for easier use.
  3. Switch up your veggies and get creative- you can use any other veggies you wish for this recipe. Shredded zucchini, shredded Carrots, kale, black olives, etc. are all great to add to these muffins. 
  4. Get creative with other toppings too- Add some bacon, chicken, and/or other cheeses for added protein and flavor.
  5. Careful to not overfill when pouring egg mixture into muffin pan- you don’t want the egg mixture to spill as you transport pan into oven.

Meal Prepping it:

Omelette muffins are perfect for meal prepping for many reasons. They make a large batch so you will have decent amount of muffins for the week ahead for a quick breakfast. You can even double the recipe and freeze half of the batch to have in your freezer stash. These muffins are also very versatile. You can switch up your veggies or add some more protein like bacon or chicken. They are super easy to make which is great if you are prepping more meals for the week.

How to store omelette muffins:

Place your omelette muffins in an airtight container or zip bag. Keep muffins refrigerated for up to 4-5 days.

Can omelette muffins be frozen?

Yes. Omelette muffins can definitely be frozen. Which is another reason why they are great for meal prepping. Once muffins come out if the oven, allow them to completely cool-down while they are still in the muffin pan. Then place them in the freezer for a couple of hours. Once they are frozen, remove muffins from muffin pan. Place muffins in a freezer friendly container or zip bag. This method will allow muffins to freeze without sticking to each other. Keep muffins frozen for up to 3-4 months.
