Egg Muffins

After blowing so many eggs for our egg decorating at the weekend, we needed to find a way to eat the eggs. We decided to have a go at my friends recipe for egg muffins (thank you Lucy from Ma Vie Bella).

This is a very easy egg recipe for children to make.

Ingredients for egg muffins

• Eggs
• A little milk
• Bread
• Grated cheese
• Sweetcorn or other filling (optional)

To make the muffins

• With the eggs cracked or blown into a bowl, lightly whisk them together with a little milk (just like for scrambled egg).
• Cut the crusts off of the bread.
• Cut the bread in half.
• Lay the 2 halves of bread in a muffin tin, in a cross formation and push them down.
• Pour some egg mixture into the bread.
• Let the egg soak into the bread a little, then pour in a little more.
• Add some grated cheese on top.
• Bake in the pre-heated oven at 200 degrees for 15 mins.

You could also add some sweetcorn or other filling if you wish. These are great for picnics and I found are a nice different way to try eggs with children.

Pinky enjoyed making these for us all. She found them very easy and fun to make. Children always love a bit of whisking, cutting, pouring and sprinkling of cheese.

What do your children like cooking?
