Notes
- Check the freshness of your eggs by placing them into a bowl of water. If they sink to the bottom they are good to use, if they float to the top then it's best to discard them.
- Spray or grease the muffin tin well to prevent the egg muffins from sticking to the pan.
- Be sure to divide the green onion, smoked salmon (or ham) and cheese evenly between each muffin cup to ensure that each egg muffins has an equal amount of flavour in each bite.
- The egg muffins are done when they are slightly puffy and lightly golden on top. If you insert a toothpick into the centre of a muffin, it should come out clean, and the eggs should start to pull away from the sides of the pan.
- To freeze, stack the mini frittatas between small pieces of parchment paper and then wrap in plastic wrap. Frittatas can be stored in the freezer for up to 1 month. Thaw on counter for 20 minutes or unwrap and arrange on plate in single layer then microwave for 30 to 45 seconds or until heated through.
