Cheesy Mashed Potato Muffins with Eggs: The Ultimate Breakfast Mash-Up

Step 5: Bake to Perfection

1. Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg whites are fully set and the yolks are cooked to your preference.
2. Optional: For golden, crispy edges, switch the oven to broil for 2-3 minutes at the end—watch carefully so they don’t burn!

Step 6: Serve and Garnish

1. Remove the muffins from the tin and let them cool slightly.
2. Sprinkle with chopped green onions or fresh herbs like parsley for extra flavor and color.
3. Serve warm, ideally with a side of fresh fruit, hot sauce, or a simple salad.
