Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheese cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
  • 1 bell pepper finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup onion finely chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin. You can also use silicone muffin liners if you’ve got them—less mess, no sticking.
  • Crack your eggs into a large bowl and whisk until smooth. Add the sour cream and mix again until it’s all nicely blended.
  • Stir in the shredded cheeses, finely chopped onion and bell pepper, salt, pepper, and oregano. Drizzle in the olive oil and give it one final mix until everything’s well combined.
  • Pour the mixture into your prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full. If you’re not using liners, just make sure you’ve sprayed each cup with cooking spray or brushed it with a bit of olive oil to avoid sticking.
  • Bake for 15 to 25 minutes, until the muffins are puffed up, set in the center, and lightly golden on top.
  • Let them cool for about 5 minutes before removing. If you skipped liners, run a butter knife gently around the edges to loosen them up and pop them out. Done!
