Bacon & Chive Egg Muffins
Rendering the bacon first and using its fat to grease the tin adds a layer of flavor you can't get from cooking spray alone.

Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon, diced
- 8 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh chives
- salt and pepper to taste
Method
- 1
Preheat oven to 375°F. Cook the diced bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 6-8 minutes, then remove with a slotted spoon, reserving the rendered fat.
- 2
Brush the rendered bacon fat generously into a 12-cup muffin tin instead of using plain cooking spray — it adds real flavor to the crust of each muffin.
- 3
Whisk eggs with almond milk, salt, and pepper, then stir in the cooked bacon and chives.
- 4
Divide the mixture evenly among the muffin cups.
- 5
Bake 18-20 minutes until puffed and set. Cool 5 minutes before removing from the tin.
