Kicking Brunch up a notch with these Spinach Gorgonzola Egg Muffins! These are rich, savory, and full of flavor!
I am a huge fan of brunch. It’s seriously one of my favorite meals on the weekends.
You guys are going to love these Spinach Gorgonzola Egg Muffins, plus they are super easy to make!
I used a large muffin tin, well actually it almost seemed like an extra large muffin tin, so this recipe made 4 large egg muffins.
You can use any size muffin tin you have, just only fill the cups 3/4 of the way full. If you are using a smaller muffin tin, your cooking time may be shorter so keep an eye on them. 🙂
I like to serve these with a small salad and some delicious rustic bread.
Oh, and let’s talk about this sauce shall we?
The sauce totally makes this dish!
It’s made with Butter, Heavy Cream, Salt, Pepper, Nutmeg, and Grana Padano. This is totally indulgent… in fact sometimes I daydream about this sauce… 🙂
