How to make Loaded Denver Omelet Muffins
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 425 degrees F. Using cooking spray, grease a muffin pan.

Step 3: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes or until the edges of the muffins have browned and the cheese has melted.
Step 4: Beat the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Then, add the ham, green and red bell peppers, and green onions. Fill each muffin cup with this mixture and sprinkle extra cheese on top.
Step 5: Return to the oven and resume baking for another 15 minutes.
