About This Recipe

Pepperoni Pizza Egg Cups take the flavors of pizza and make it into a paleo and Whole30 approved breakfast, great for meal prep or breakfast on the go!

Ingredients

  • 1 green pepper, diced (135 grams)
  • 8 mushrooms, diced (160 grams)
  • 1/4 cup pizza sauce + more for topping*
  • 12 large pieces of pepperoni*
  • 7 large eggs
  • pinch of dried basil
  • pinch of red pepper flakes
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • avocado oil, for greasing

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a muffin tin with avocado oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat. Spray with avocado oil and let it get hot, about 30 seconds. Add green pepper and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add mushrooms and cook for another 2 minutes. Add 1/4 cup pizza sauce and mix well. Remove from heat.
  3. In a large bowl whisk eggs together with salt and pepper.
  4. Place pepperoni in muffin tins, creating a cup to hold the toppings. Add 1 heaping tablespoon of pepper and mushroom mixture in each cup. Repeat until muffin tin is full. Divide whisked eggs evenly among pepperoni cups. Top with a little more pizza sauce (optional) and a pinch of dried basil and red pepper flakes.
  5. Bake for 12 minutes or until eggs are set and no longer jiggle. Let cool for a few minutes.
  6. Enjoy!
