Normally I’m not really a big fan of eggs, mainly because I’m not very keen on the chicken industry, but for organic eggs I gladly make an exception. These egg muffins are perfect for a Sunday brunch or as a quick on-the-go breakfast, when made up front. You can warm these up in the microwave, but cold they are just as good!

These egg muffins are pretty darn delicious, and the addition of the spinach and pine nuts definitely makes them more healthy than your average bacon and eggs breakfast.

Savory Egg MuffinsThe trick here is to whip up the eggs until they become somewhat frothy, so that the muffins will become light and fluffy.
