Muffin tins are boring. Bell peppers are not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Slice them into rings. Crack an egg inside. Bake. What comes out is a colorful, cheese-topped, protein-packed breakfast that looks like you tried way harder than you did. Plus, you can hold it like a tiny breakfast donut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Serves 2\u20134.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
2 large bell peppers (any color)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
4 large eggs<\/li>\n\n\n\n
\u00bc cup shredded cheddar, feta, or Mexican blend cheese<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Salt and black pepper to taste<\/li>\n\n\n\n
\u00bc teaspoon garlic powder or smoked paprika (optional)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Fresh parsley or chives, for garnish<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Hot sauce or salsa, for serving<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Step-by-Step Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Step 1: Preheat and Slice<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Preheat oven to 375\u00b0F (190\u00b0C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Slice bell peppers into \u00bd-inch thick rings. Remove seeds and membranes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
You’ll get about 2\u20133 rings per pepper. Save the tops and bottoms for another use.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 2: Arrange<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Place pepper rings on the baking sheet in a single layer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Lightly spray or brush inside of each ring with oil to prevent sticking.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 3: Add the Eggs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Crack one egg into each pepper ring. Try not to break the yolk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
If egg white spills under the pepper, that’s fine\u2014crispy edges are delicious.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 4: Season and Bake<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder or paprika.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Top each with shredded cheese.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Bake for 12\u201315 minutes until egg whites are set and yolks are to your liking.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 5: Serve<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Let cool 2 minutes. Garnish with fresh herbs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Serve with hot sauce, salsa, or just eat them with your hands like the breakfast genius you are.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Fridge:<\/strong> Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in air fryer at 350\u00b0F for 3 minutes or toaster oven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Microwave warning:<\/strong> It works, but the pepper gets soft. Acceptable for work lunches, not for brunch flexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meal prep:<\/strong> Slice pepper rings ahead and store in the fridge. Crack eggs fresh the morning of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pro tip:<\/strong> Buy peppers with flat bottoms so the rings stand stable. Crooked peppers = spilled eggs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
