Sweet Potato Egg Cups

Egg cups are amazing for a delicious, easy, healthy breakfast prep! You can make a whole muffin tin worth or just a couple of them at a time depending on how many people you are serving and how many days you want to eat these egg cups.

I use two egg cups as a serving for breakfast. Then you can add other things like a piece of toast or another vegetable or piece of fruit to round it out. Of if you can’t get enough of them add a third cup :).
