  2. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a muffin tin.

  4. Pour the egg mixture into the muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

  6. Allow them to cool slightly before removing from the tin. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!

Tips for Asian Inspired Egg Muffins

  • For an even set, keep the diced vegetables small and distribute them evenly; large pieces can make the muffins break apart.
  • The tops should look puffed and set, with no glossy liquid egg in the center. They may deflate slightly as they cool.
  • A silicone muffin pan or paper liners can make removal easier; let the muffins rest briefly before lifting them out.

Drink pairing

Its clean, delicate character complements the savory soy and sesame flavors without overpowering the eggs and vegetables.

0% option: Unsweetened green tea

Storage
