One of my favorite things about making these muffins is the frozen veggies. I like to keep bags of frozen veggies stashed in the freezer and only thaw out what I need for each recipe. It saves a ton of time and money and low carb veggies are always on hand.
EASY RECIPE ADD-INS:
This recipe is totally adaptive and can easily be changed to suit your own tastes. For extra texture, sprinkle on some shredded cheddar or parmesan. Add some zip with sliced scallions or chives. Want some heat? Throw a pinch of cayenne into the eggs.
The veggies can be changed up too. Broccoli, cauliflower and spinach are low carb veggie staples to be sure, but bell pepper, zucchini, asparagus and celery are all good substitutes.

*Pro Tip – line the muffin cups with foil or silicone baking cups. Paper liners will start to dissolve because of the wet eggs, and will rip and tear when trying to remove them after baking. I use these silicone baking cups that have tabs to make them easy to remove from the muffin tin.
DO I NEED A MUFFIN TIN TO MAKE EASY KETO VEGETABLE EGG MUFFINS?
Not necessarily. Though the recipe was tested using a standard size muffin tin, you could bake the mixture in a mini muffin tin too. Or bake it like a casserole in a round or square cake pan. It’s all good. The baking time will be shorter for the mini tin and a little longer for the cake pan.
