Bake a batch of these tasty VEGEMITE muffins to give you and your family a delicious start to the day. These are also great for breakfast on the go or added to a lunchbox.

Prep Time 10 mins

Cooking Time 20 mins

Makes 6

  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 6 slices white bread, crusts removed
  • 1 tablespoon VEGEMITE
  • 30 g finely chopped spinach
  • ¼ cup (30 g) grated reduced fat tasty cheese
  • 6 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped raw bacon
  • 1 tablespoon chopped chives

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 190°C/170°C fan-forced and brush a 6-hole large muffin tin with a little of the melted butter.
  2. Flatten each bread slice with a rolling pin until very thin. Brush both sides of the bread with melted butter. Spread one side only with VEGEMITE. Press 1 slice of bread, with the VEGEMITE facing up, into each hole in the muffin tin.
  3. Bake for 5 minutes or until the bread is slightly firm. Remove the tin from the oven and sprinkle spinach and cheese into each bread cup. Crack 1 egg into each cup. Season with freshly ground black pepper and top with the bacon.
  4. Bake for a further 15 minutes or until the whites are set. Remove from the tin and sprinkle with the chives before serving.
