Hearty Cauliflower Muffins

Hearty Cauliflower Muffins are my latest healthy and hearty breakfast treat! I am always looking for new ways of incorporating more vegetables into my family’s meals and these muffins are a great way to start the day in a healthy and tasty way!

I start by grating cauliflower and seasoning it with nutmeg, garlic, salt and pepper before adding eggs and cheese to make a dough. I bake the dough in the oven and once it is cooked, I sprinkle crispy bacon on top of each muffin and crack an egg in. I return the pan to the oven and bake again until the eggs are cooked to my liking.

To make Hearty Cauliflower Muffins, you will need the following ingredients:
