They’re baaaaaack! Egg muffins, that is. After a resounding chorus of “We want more healthy breakfast recipes!” I’ve stepped (back) up to the plate to deliver the next iteration in fast and fresh a.m. options: Freezer-Friendly Egg White Muffins.

Similar to their culinary counterpart, these egg white muffins pack a whole lot of protein into each and every bite. And they’re totally customizable when it comes to fillings, so dream up your ultimate omelette, then add all of those ingredients into an egg white base.

Egg Muffins for Meal Prep

Perhaps the greatest selling point is the ability for these muffins to be baked and then popped into the freezer for a quick and healthy morning meal or snack on-the-go.

I’m a breakfast super-enthusiast, so when mornings are rushed (i.e. 8 out of 7 days a week!), I grab one or two of these muffins from the freezer, pop them in the microwave for 1 minute and then enjoy a hot meal in one hand while holding my little guy in the other.

The skinny on this recipe? Two egg white muffins clock in at exactly 100 calories!

  1. 4 stars
    They were delicious when I ate them from the refrigerator but when I froze and vacuum sealed them they had a lot of water in them and the texture was off .. they were tough and spongy although still not completely warm after I microwaved them for 1 minute.. I see that you advised others to sautee veggies first and drain water .. which I did not do .. hopefully that will solve the problem .. because they are delicious and would love to be able to freeze them .. I used spinach, mushrooms, red onions and red peppers in them..

    1. I’m so glad you enjoyed them, Samantha! Yes, I’d definitely recommend sautéing the veggies first to remove excess moisture.
