Spray the muffin pan with non-stick spray. Break an egg for each opening, (or for how many eggs you want) Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Careful not to break the yolk unless you don't like runny eggs.
Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes, or until cooked to your liking, checking every 5 minutes - Take out of oven and let sit for 5 minutes to help eggs set up.
You can also make mini omelettes. Just break eggs in a bowl as if you are making scrambled eggs. Pour eggs evenly into tin openings. Add whatever omelette ingredients you like. Bake as above
you might be able to if you used big muffin tins but the meringue would probably spill out of the pan.
How many muffins you'd get from a one pound package of muffin mix, depends on how big your muffin pans are. The package should say what the expected yield would be if you use a standard size muffin tin that aren't over filled.
Yes, just put the mix into a cake tin instead of into muffin cases.
Whether you use silicone or paper baking cups is a matter of preference. Silicone baking cups are easy to clean and have the added advantage of preventing your muffins from burning. Paper cups are easy to clean up and disposable but you may still have to clean the muffin tin after you use them.
No they aren't really nonstick. Grease your muffin cups!
I don't think traditionally you use any grease with meringues. I do it with muffin cup liners - mine are made of parchment and are non-stick.
Any small glass dishes rated to go into the oven will work. You may be able to use a metal muffin or pop over pan. Mini-spring forms might work as well.I would experiment in advance to see what works.
You can use those paper cups just as you would the aluminum ones. I actually prefer the paper cups to the aluminum cups.
For most things no its not worth it, just use a bit of trial and error. Most things don't need specific greasing, but occasionally you get something that has the adhesive properties of superglue, then grease the tin next time. (all the crispy bits will slide off after a good soak)
No, because if you grease the pan the muffins should not stick. However, muffin tins, or cups, are easier to use, if more expensive, because the muffins always slide out.
A muffin pan also known as a muffin tin is typically a metal pan usually with 12 cups or indentations used to bake muffins or cupcakes.
water in empty ones and those paper cupcake wrapper things
They are small containers that are good for a lot of things like cooking custards, snacks and preparing ingredients. They are usually very durable (oven, microwave, freezer etc).
