Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- ½ cup unsweetened nut milk low-fat milk, or regular milk
- Ground black pepper to taste
- 1 1/2 cups chopped broccoli florets should be around 1/2-inch long
- ½ cup coarsely grated aged cheese such as Greek graviera, Parmigiano or cheddar

- 4 Tbsp chopped fresh mint or basil
- 1 minced garlic clove
- Sea salt to taste
- ¼ cup extra virgin Greek olive oil plus more for brushing the muffin tin
- Special Equipment:

Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 325F.
-
Brush the muffin tin with olive oil (You can also use a silicone muffin tray.) Combine the chopped broccoli, scallions, garlic, mint, or basil, and cheeses in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon equal amounts of the broccoli mixture into the muffin cups.

Whisk the eggs, milk, salt and pepper together in a large bowl until the eggs are thick and frothy. Transfer the egg mixture to a pitcher and pour equal amounts into each muffin cup, over and around the broccoli mixture.

Bake for about 25 minutes, until set and golden. Remove, cool slightly, and invert the muffin tin to pop out the mini broccoli omelets. Serve warm or at room temperature.
