SERVINGS

  • 30 ml canola oil
  • 500 ml leeks, cleaned & diced
  • 250 ml cream, half & half, 10%
  • 4 eggs, large
  • 5 ml lemon zest, grated fresh
  • 3 g table salt
  • 1 g black pepper
  • 90 g feta cheese, drained & crumbled

Instructions

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add diced leeks (green & white part) and cook until they are wilted, for about 7 minutes. Stir while cooking to prevent leeks from browning. Set aside until ready to assemble egg recipes.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together cream, eggs, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Hold under refrigeration at 4’C/40’F or lower until ready to assemble egg recipes below.

Drain feta cheese in a colander. Crumble feta cheese and place in a small bowl. Hold under refrigeration at 4’C/40’F or lower until ready to assemble any of the egg recipes using this base egg, leek & lemon feta egg mixture.

Preheat oven to 350’F/175’C.

Spray 12 mould (4/5 oz) muffin/cupcake pan with cooking spray to yield 8 muffins per recipe.

Distribute the cooked leeks evenly across the bottom of each of the muffin cups. Pour the egg/cream mixture evenly (~ ½ cup) over the leeks. Top the egg/cream mixture in the pan with crumbled feta.

Bake the egg muffins for ~20 minutes until the edges are set but the center still jiggles just a little. Ensure the internal temperature of the egg muffins reach 74’C/165’F for a minimum of 15 seconds.
