Ingredients
Scale
- 10 large eggs
- 1 cup (8 oz/226 g) breakfast sausage
- 36 tater tots
- ¼ cup (2 fl oz/60 ml) milk
- ½ cup shredded cheese
- ½ bell pepper, diced
- Seasoning to taste
Instructions
- Preparation: Preheat oven to 400°F and thoroughly spray a standard muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray to ensure easy removal.
- Tater Tot Base: Microwave frozen tater tots until softened, then place 3 tots in each muffin cavity. Compress tots using the bottom of a small cup to create a compact, crispy foundation, then bake for 10 minutes.
- Protein Preparation: Microwave sausage links and dice into small pieces. Chop pre-diced bell peppers and distribute evenly across the muffin cups.
- Egg Mixture: Reduce oven temperature to 350°F. In a mixing bowl, whisk eggs, milk, and preferred seasonings until thoroughly blended.
- Assembly: Pour egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling approximately 90% to allow expansion. Generously top with shredded cheese.
- Baking: Bake for 20 minutes or until eggs are completely set and cheese is melted with a golden hue.
- Serving: Remove from oven and let cool briefly before carefully extracting mini omelets from the pan.
Notes
- Prepare Perfectly: Use cooking spray generously to guarantee easy removal of mini omelets from muffin pan.
- Create Crispy Base: Press tater tots firmly with a small cup to establish a compact, golden foundation for optimal texture.
- Prevent Overflow: Fill egg mixture only 90% to avoid spilling and ensure even cooking during baking.
- Customize Flavors: Experiment with different proteins, cheeses, and seasonings to personalize these portable breakfast bites.
