Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk (or dairy-free milk for a dairy-free version)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Vegetables & Cheese
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup diced onion
For Greasing
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for greasing the pan)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a muffin tin or a baking dish with olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Mix Eggs and Seasonings: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Add Vegetables and Cheese: Stir in the chopped spinach, crumbled feta cheese, and diced onion evenly distributing all ingredients throughout the egg mixture.
- Fill Baking Vessel: Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups or the baking dish, making sure each portion is distributed equally for even cooking.
- Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes if using a baking dish, or 15 to 20 minutes if using a muffin tin, until the omelets are set and the tops are lightly golden.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from oven and let the omelets cool slightly before removing from the muffin tin or slicing the baking dish. Serve warm for a delightful breakfast or snack.
Notes
- To make this recipe dairy-free, substitute the milk with a plant-based alternative and omit feta or replace with a dairy-free cheese.
- If you prefer more veggies, feel free to add diced bell peppers or mushrooms with the spinach and onion.
- Store leftover omelets in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat before serving.
- These baked omelets are freezer-friendly—freeze individually wrapped portions and reheat in the microwave or oven.
- Using a nonstick muffin tin can simplify clean-up and prevent sticking.
