Instructions

1

Preheat and Prepare

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius or 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 12-cup mini muffin tin thoroughly with olive oil ensuring all sides are coated to prevent sticking.

2

Make the Egg Mixture

Whisk together the eggs, whole milk, and onion powder in a large bowl until well combined. Fold in the finely chopped steamed broccoli and half of the shredded cheddar cheese.

3

Fill and Top

Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups filling each about three quarters full. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese on top of each muffin.
