Background

These low-carb goat’s cheese & red pepper egg muffins are perfect for a light brunch or lunch, served with a crispy salad. Alternatively, serve them as party nibbles or picnic snack - or take them with you to work in your lunchbox. They are super easy to make, delicate and delicious.

Ingredients

4 large eggs
50g goats cheese
2 Tbsp chopped chives
1 grilled/roasted red pepper
Salt and pepper
Butter or oil
Chopped chives to garnish

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Grease a 6 hole muffin tin with oil and butter.
Chop the bell pepper into small bits.
Whisk the eggs with the chives and 4 pinches of salt. Season with ground pepper.
Divide the egg mixture between the muffin holes. Drop a few pieces of the chopped peppers into each hole, then crumble some goat's cheese on top - they will sink into the egg mixture.
Put the tin in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes until golden.
Let them cool in the tin (they will collapse a bit) then transfer them to a plate.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
