Spanakopita Egg Muffins (Easy Egg Bite Recipe!)
From the zcook collection
These egg muffins are an easy egg bite recipe inspired from the savory Greek pastry spanakopita, but I skip the phyllo crust for a gluten free, healthy breakfast or high protein snack that’s easy, satisfying and delicious. They freeze and reheat exceptionally well, so they’re a great way to get ahead for busy weekday mornings.

Step 1: Start with the 9 ounces frozen spinach already thawed; squeeze it thoroughly dry. Heat the oven to350°F(175°C) with a rack in the center. Generously brush the bottoms and sides of a muffin tin with olive oil.
Step 2: Whisk the12eggs with oregano, black pepper (¾ tsp), sweet paprika (¾ tsp), baking powder (¼ tsp) and a pinch of kosher salt in a pouring bowl. Mix in the squeezed spinach from step1, chopped onion, parsley (1¼ cups), mint (¼ cup), garlic (4 large) and crumbled feta until evenly combined.
Step 3: Pour the batter into the oiled muffin cups, filling each about¾full to leave room for rising. Bake at350°F(175°C) for25–30minutes until the eggs are fully set. Cool briefly, loosen the edges with a butter knife and lift out. Divide the batch into six portions. Cool completely before refrigerating for up to4days; the source also allows individually wrapped freezing for up to2months.
