Mornin Sunshine Breakfast Cups Recipes

MORNIN' SUNSHINE BREAKFAST CUPS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• 2. I use silicone cupcake holders, so no need to grease the pan, but if you don't then spray a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray well.
• 3. In a medium skillet cook the diced bacon on medium high, stirring occasionally. When crisp, remove to a bowl to cool.
• 4. In the same pan, using the bacon grease, add the mushrooms, bell pepper, onion and frozen spinach (you don't have to thaw but you can thaw before cooking). Add a little salt and pepper and cook on medium high, stirring, until spinach is thawed and vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Remove to a bowl with a slotted spoon and place in the freezer to cool.
• 5. In a medium bowl, add eggs and whipping cream; Whisk to combine. Add 1 cup of the cheese (reserving the 1/4 cup for topping), salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder. Mix with a large spoon. Add cooled vegetables from freezer and mix gently.
• 6. Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, pour 1/4 cup mixture evenly into all 12 tins. Top with the remaining 1/4 cup cheese and bake 20 minutes.
• 7. Serve warm-makes 12

GOOD MORNING SUNSHINE EGGS

Steps:

• In a 13 X 9 lightly greased baking dish, place your bread cubes evenly on the bottom.
• In a medium bowl, whip the eggs together with the milk until well beaten.
• Stir in the sausage and cheese and pour over the bread crumbs.
• Cover with foil and bake at 325 degrees for 20 minutes.
• Remove foil and bake an additional 15 minutes.
• I lightly sprinkle more shredded cheese on top when this comes out of the oven.

MAKE-AHEAD BRUNCH CUPS

Steps:

• Spray 24 regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray. Cook potatoes on stovetop as directed on bag.
• Spoon potatoes evenly into muffin cups, about 2 tablespoons each; press down into cups. Spoon heaping teaspoon soup on top of potatoes in each cup.
• In large bowl, beat eggs until well blended. In 10-inch skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add eggs; cook and stir until scrambled and set. Spoon eggs evenly over soup in cups. Sprinkle each with about 1/2 tablespoon bacon and 1 tablespoon cheese. Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight.
• At serving time, heat oven to 350°F. Bake about 30 minutes or until thoroughly heated and cheese is melted.

BREAKFAST CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 18 muffin cups with cooking spray.
• Roll out biscuit dough on a lightly floured surface to form 5-inch rounds. Place each round in the prepared muffin cups, pressing into the base and sides to form a dough cup.
• Cook and stir sausage in a skillet over medium-high heat until browned and cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes; drain fat. Spoon sausage into dough cups.
• Whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper together in a bowl until well-beaten. Pour egg mixture into each dough cup, filling each just below the top of the biscuit dough. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese on top of egg mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until eggs are set and biscuit dough is golden, 15 to 18 minutes.

GOOD MORNING SUNSHINE MUFFINS (HEARTY CARROT MUFFINS WITH COCONUT AND PINEAPPLE)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease or place cupcake wrappers in a standard-size, 12-cup muffin pan.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and ginger.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, applesauce, brown sugar, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract.
• Pour the wet ingredients over the dry and whisk just until all ingredients are incorporated. Gently stir in the carrots, 1/2 cup coconut, and pineapple.
• Use a cookie scoop to divide the mixture between the muffin cups. Cups should be filled to the top.
• Sprinkle tops evenly with remaining 2 tablespoons coconut.
• Bake for 20 - 25 minutes or until muffin tops spring back when poked and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Allow to cool for 5 - 10 minutes before removing from the muffin tin. Serve plain or with butter, if desired.
• Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 - 3 days, or freeze.
