How to Store and Reheat Egg Muffins

You have two main options to consider when storing egg muffins. The first method is to store them in the refrigerator. It will be possible for you to store the egg muffins in your refrigerator for up to five days. When you want to prepare them for breakfast, you just need to take them out and reheat them.

Or else, you can also store the breakfast egg muffins in a freezer. To keep the breakfast egg muffins for a longer time, storing them in a freezer is the best option available to consider. You can take a freezer bag, lay all the egg muffins flat in it and freeze them in the freezer.

No matter how you store breakfast egg muffins, have a clear understanding of how to reheat them. You can use the microwave oven to reheat the egg muffins. All you must do is to take the muffins out from your refrigerator and heat them for around 20 seconds. However, you must reheat them for around 60 to 90 seconds after taking them out from the refrigerator.

Instead of using the microwave oven, you can use a toaster oven to reheat egg muffins. You will need to set the toaster oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and heat for around 10 minutes.

No matter how you reheat the egg muffins, they can deliver a perfect taste to you. Hence, you can use them as an ideal method to start your day.

Tips and Recommendations

Here are useful tips to remember when preparing egg muffins. You can follow these tips and get the most out of the recipe.

Prepare the muffins ahead of time

Breakfast egg muffins are a simple recipe, and you can prepare them in the mornings. However, don’t go through the morning struggle because you can prepare them in advance and keep them in the refrigerator. This will help you to save time in the busy mornings. For example, you can prepare the egg muffins on a Sunday. Then you can keep them in your refrigerator. You just need to take the muffin cups out from the refrigerator and bake in the weekday mornings.

It is better if you can use an airtight container for storing the egg muffins inside a refrigerator. Then you can reheat them in an oven or microwave to enjoy the fresh taste.

Preparing egg muffins with egg whites

You can use only egg whites for preparing egg muffins. However, you will need to have two egg whites instead of a whole egg. You will need to take 12 egg whites to prepare the recipe mentioned above.

When removing the egg yolks from the recipe, you will be changing the overall flavor of muffins. Hence, it is recommended to increase the pepper and salt you are adding to the recipe.

Other variations available to try

Instead of sticking to the recipe we shared above, you can also consider the other variations. This will help you to prepare the different variations of egg muffins. You will never get bored as you are baking the same thing every morning.

Instead of using Mozzarella cheese, you can think about using any other variation of cheese. This will help you to change the overall cheesy texture of the recipe, along with its taste.

You can also think about adding many other favorite vegetables into the recipe. For example, you can add spinach, mushrooms, or red peppers. There is no need to think twice before you experiment with these ingredients. These experiments can also help you not to make the same recipe every single day. To get an extra taste, you can add fresh herbs to the recipe.

It is even possible for you to make mini muffins. To prepare them as a snack, mini muffins will be the best option available out there to consider. However, you will need to adjust the baking time as you make mini muffins.

Serving breakfast egg muffins

You have numerous options available to serve breakfast egg muffins. However, the most common method is to serve them alone. You can also serve them with other common food you can see at the breakfast table, such as sandwiches and hash browns.

Be mindful about sticking when adding the mixture into the muffin cups. This is where you should think about using an appropriate nonstick spray.
