    ⭐Why This Recipe Works

    • Makes a great quick weekday breakfast like this Popover Recipe.
    • Combines the yummy flavor of turkey bacon, crescents and cheese
    • Low prep time and cooking time is just 20 minutes


    🥣Ingredient Notes

    • Whole eggs - I used large eggs
    • Turkey Bacon, chopped - a healthy source of protein in this recipe
    • Tube of crescent rolls - You will want one that comes with 8 crescent rolls since you will be using 6 of them for this recipe.
    • Salt and black pepper - to taste
    ingredients to make turkey bacon and egg muffins


    📋Step by Step Instructions

    STEP 1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

    STEP 2: Spray the muffin tin with cooking spray.

    STEP 3: Open up a tube of crescent rolls. Remove the dough from the tube and unroll it. The dough is made of crescent triangles.

    STEP 4: Form each triangle into a muffin cup in the muffin tin. Make sure that there are no openings in the dough or the eggs will leak through.

    STEP 5: In a large bowl, whisk eggs and add cheese and 4 slices of chopped Turkey Bacon. Mix well.

    STEP 6: Divide mixture evenly between the 6 muffin cups, making sure each is Ÿ full. Do not fill to the top. You may have extra egg mixture depending on the size eggs you used.

    STEP 7: Bake at 350 degrees for 17-20 minutes or until a fork stuck in the center of the egg comes out dry. Remove from pan and add salt and pepper to taste before serving.

    👩🏻‍🍳Expert Tips

    Tip 1: All ovens cook differently. Mine were done at 17 minutes. If the crescent roll dough starts to brown too much, you can place some foil over it while the eggs continue to cook.

    Tip 2: You can use chopped turkey sausage instead of turkey bacon.

    Tip 3: To make these a little healthy, you can use reduced-fat crescent rolls.


    🤷🏻‍♀️Recipe FAQs

    What size muffin pan do you use for these egg muffins?

    We will be using a 6 cup muffin tin for this recipe.

    What else can I add to this recipe?

    If you want some veggies, add chopped bell pepper, spinach, or chopped onions.

    How do I store these egg cups?

    You can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freezer them for up to 2 months and warm up in the microwave when ready to use.
