Peppers and Sausage Egg Muffin Cups

I decided to keep my daughters (4 1/2 and 3) occupied with some fun kitchen activity. I got them to actively help me make some egg muffin cups. As the name suggests these are eggs made in muffin cups. You make your desired filling then top off with some beaten eggs and bake. For these particular egg muffin cups we used sausages and bell peppers for the filling. For flavouring I worked with garlic and added some dried oregano since I find it pairs beautifully with eggs and ground coriander. There you have it peppers and sausage egg muffin cups. The girls each ate two in one sitting. #KidApproved Video:
