Preparation
Chef’s notes
These egg muffins are wonderful fresh out of the oven but can be made ahead and refrigerated up to 5 days or frozen up to 3 months.
To reheat:
microwave frozen muffins uncovered for 80-90 seconds, or until hot. Microwave refrigerated muffins for 20-25 seconds.
Silicone muffin liners are best because they release the egg muffins easily, clean up quickly, and you don’t need to grease them.
Avoid paper liners as they are difficult to remove from baked muffins.
