How to make Loaded Denver Omelet Muffins
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 425 degrees F. And using a cooking spray, grease a muffin pan.
Step 2: Place the thawed hash browns and a tbsp olive oil in a large bowl. Mix well to combine. Transfer into the prepared muffin pan and tightly press to the bottom using your fingers. Into each muffin, add a tbsp cheese.
Step 3: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes until the edges of the muffins have browned and the cheese has melted.
Step 4: In the meantime, whisk the eggs and milk in a small bowl. To taste, season with salt and pepper. Then, add in the ham, green and red bell peppers, and green onions.
Step 5: Once the muffins are done, remove the muffin pan from the oven and fill each cup with the egg mixture and top with extra cheese. Return to the oven and continue to bake for another 15 minutes.
