  4. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the muffins are set.
  5. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.

Tips for Indian Masala Egg Muffins

  • The muffins are ready when the centers look set and spring back lightly; a wet-looking center needs more time.
  • Avoid overfilling the cups, since the egg mixture can puff as it cooks and spill over.
  • Let them rest briefly before serving so they firm up and are easier to lift from the tin.

Frequently asked questions

How can I tell when the muffins are done?

The centers should look set rather than glossy and should spring back lightly when touched.

Can I make these ahead?

Yes. Cook them ahead, refrigerate promptly, and reheat until steaming hot before serving.

How do I keep them from sticking to the tin?

Grease each cup thoroughly, including the sides, and allow the muffins to rest briefly before loosening them.
