How to make keto breakfast egg muffins
I used silicone muffin cases for easy removal from the muffin tin. And to prevent me having to scrap the egg muffins out of the tin and needing to soak it in the sink.
You can use any combination of cheese and vegetables for the egg muffins but I made these 3 flavour combinations baked in a 12-cup muffin tin making 4 muffins of each flavour.
