Easy Egg Breakfast Muffins

I love my sisters. Really, I couldn’t make it through the day sometimes without them. Our mornings at Starbucks, gym workouts and daily, sometimes hourly phone calls power me through ever so long days. What I love about our relationships is our honesty and knowing each other’s gifts and talents.

My sister, Tami, tells us to assign her something that she can buy at the store every time we all get together for a meal. Although Tami is an excellent baker and she can really whip out anything, she just doesn’t have the time. As a working professional and mom to the cutest little girl you will ever meet, she values and prioritizes her time well. Besides making sugar and monster cookies, Tam loves to make things for her daughter, Kennedy. Snacks, lunches, and etc.

The other morning she texted my sister, Nicole and I a picture of K’s breakfast. It was something a co-worker had told her about. It was a piece of bacon wrapped around an egg muffin with some cheese. So cute, so simple. She used the bacon kind of like a muffin wrapper, genius! I love it and knew I wanted to make it. As I had some puff pastry crust already thawing, I put my own little twist on Tam’s muffin.

  1. Hey big daddy will give these a try with AWESOME organic eggs from brother Joe! Hmm maybe a little sausage gravy would add some much needed fat::)

  2. Those look super yummy!
    Have to admit I’m a little jealous over the relationship you if you have with your sister.
    My sister lives three hours away so our time together is few and far between.

    1. Scott, just the puff pastry and egg is around 180, so add in your toppings and that will give you an idea. I am thinking about 250 a muffin. Hope this helps. San

  3. I love my sisters too! They are truly my best friends. Those breakfast muffins look really good too and I like that they’re simple to make!

  4. I have a very strong relationship with my sisters. They are 7 and 9 years younger than me, and it wasn’t always that way, but as we have gotten older, we have grown closer. These muffins look delicious!

    1. Thanks Mindy! I have a sister that is 11 years younger than me and we aren’t as close as my sisters that are close to my age. But I am hoping once she has a family that will change. xo San

  5. Thank you so much! I have managed to make me oh so hungry! I wish my whole family could enjoy these muffins!!!! Yum x a million.

  6. Looks great. Don’t think I’d waste time breaking one egg at a time. I would break all 18 eggs at once, beat, add salt and pepper then pour into muffin cups from a pitcher. Much faster and simpler.

  7. Thanks for the recipe, I didn’t have the pastery so I used the cheap canned biscuits that I use to make dumplings. There are 10 biscuits in a can. I pressed them until they where larger then the muffin tin and thin and followed the rest of the directions. They where wonderful. Thank you so much for the idea. Just watch when using the biscuits they get big lol. Cooking time about 18 mins.
