Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup cooked turkey, finely diced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, packed
  • 2 tablespoons green onions, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray a 12-cup standard muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray or brush with melted butter.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs and 1/4 cup whole milk until the yolks and whites are completely combined and the mixture is pale yellow with no streaks. Whisk gently for about 20 seconds.
  3. Add 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Whisk just to incorporate.
  4. Fold in 1 cup finely diced cooked turkey and 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese using a spatula until evenly distributed. Do not overmix.
  5. Divide the mixture evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full. Sprinkle sliced green onions over the top.
  6. Bake for 15-18 minutes, until the edges are set and golden and the centers are just barely jiggly. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Run a thin spatula around the edges and gently lift the bites out. Transfer to a cooling rack.
  8. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Don’t overmix the eggs to avoid deflation. Use room-temperature ingredients for best results. Dice turkey into 1/4-inch pieces to ensure even distribution. Let bites cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing. For mini muffin tin, bake 10-12 minutes. These taste even better the next day.
