Notes
~ If using discard instead, add in 1 teaspoon of baking soda.
~ Use a batter bowl. A batter bowl is the best way to pour this mix into the muffin pan. The easy pour spout allows you control how much is being poured. And keeps things clean.
~ Use a 12-Muffin Non Stick Pan. If you do not have a non stick make sure you prepare the pan with cooking spray to ensure the egg bites can easily be removed.
~ Allow to cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan.
~ This recipe is so versatile and is a great one to get creative with. Shredded carrots or zucchini, chopped broccoli and onions could all be added in place of the peppers or mushrooms.
~ When using something like zucchini, that has a high water content, be sure to extract as much liquid out as you can before adding to the batter.
