Ingredients You’ll Need

Here’s what you’ll gather for these Spinach Feta and Sun-Dried Tomato Egg Muffins:

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped (oil-packed recommended for best flavor)
  • 1/4 cup whole milk (or a non-dairy substitute)
  • 1/2 tsp salt (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Ingredient notes from my kitchen to yours

  • Oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes bring that rich, slightly tangy flavor that makes people ask, “Wait… what’s in these?”
  • Baking powder is a tiny trick that helps the muffins puff up a little—like a cute little breakfast soufflé moment, but without the drama.

How to Make Spinach Feta and Sun-Dried Tomato Egg Muffins

Step 1: Preheat and prep

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.

(Don’t skip greasing. Egg muffins have strong opinions about staying stuck to pans.)

Step 2: Whisk the eggs

In a large bowl, crack the 6 eggs and whisk until light and frothy. You want them well-mixed so every muffin bakes evenly.

Step 3: Add the milk and seasonings

Pour in the milk, then add salt and black pepper. Whisk again until everything looks smooth.

Step 4: Fold in the good stuff

Add your chopped spinach, feta, sun-dried tomatoes, and baking powder. Stir gently—just until combined.

You’re not trying to beat it into submission. We want tender muffins, not tough little hockey pucks.

Step 5: Fill the muffin tin

Pour the mixture evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.

If you spill a little, no worries. That’s just the muffin tin getting a snack.

Step 6: Bake

Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the tops are lightly golden and the centers are set.

Your nose will know they’re close, because your kitchen is about to smell like a “look at me being healthy” victory.

Step 7: Cool and enjoy

Let them cool for a few minutes, then gently remove from the tin. Enjoy warm—or let them cool completely for meal prep.

Easy Cooking Tips (Because Life Is Busy)

  • Drain those sun-dried tomatoes: If they’re oil-packed, give them a quick pat with a paper towel so the muffins aren’t greasy.
  • Chop spinach small: Big spinach leaves can get weirdly stringy. Smaller pieces = better texture.
  • Don’t overbake: Egg muffins can go from tender to rubbery if they sit too long in the oven. Pull them when they’re set.
  • If they sink a little after baking: Totally normal. They’re eggs, not cupcakes. They don’t do “fluffy forever,” and honestly… same.
  • Want more veggies? Add finely chopped bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms. Just keep mix-ins not too watery.

A Little Real-Life Moment from My Kitchen

I started making recipes like these Spinach Feta and Sun-Dried Tomato Egg Muffins during one of those weeks where my to-do list was basically a novel. I needed breakfast to be fast, filling, and not another granola bar eaten while standing at the counter.

These saved me. I’d bake a batch, pop them in the fridge, and suddenly mornings felt less like chaos and more like… organized chaos. And that’s a win in my book.

Serving Ideas

These muffins are great on their own, but if you want to turn breakfast into a full-on moment:

  • Pair with fresh fruit (grapes, berries, whatever’s easiest)
  • Add toast or an English muffin
  • Serve with avocado slices for extra cozy brunch vibes
  • Toss one into a lunchbox with some crackers and veggies

They also make an excellent “I forgot to eat lunch again” rescue snack.

FAQs About Spinach Feta and Sun-Dried Tomato Egg Muffins 

Can I use frozen spinach?

Yes! Thaw it first and squeeze out as much water as possible. Frozen spinach loves to sneak extra moisture into recipes like it’s on a mission.

Can I substitute the feta cheese?

Absolutely. Goat cheese is delicious, shredded mozzarella is milder, and cheddar works if that’s what you have. Feta gives that salty tang, but your fridge gets a vote too.

Can I use a non-dairy milk?

Yep! Unsweetened almond milk, oat milk, or any non-dairy substitute works well. Just avoid anything sweetened or vanilla-flavored unless you’re into “dessert omelet” vibes.

How do I store leftovers?

Let the muffins cool completely, then store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.

Can I freeze Spinach Feta and Sun-Dried Tomato Egg Muffins?

Yes! Freeze in a single layer first, then transfer to a freezer bag. They keep well for about 2 months.

How do I reheat them?

Microwave: 20–30 seconds from the fridge (longer if frozen)
Oven/Toaster oven: 300°F for about 8–10 minutes for a fresher texture

Your New Breakfast Win

If you’ve been craving a breakfast that’s easy, flavorful, and actually fits into real life, Spinach Feta and Sun-Dried Tomato Egg Muffins are the move. They’re the kind of meal prep that doesn’t feel like punishment—more like a little gift you leave yourself for the week ahead.
