15 Delicious Meals You Can Make In A Muffin Tin

There’s way more uses for your muffin tin than you originally thought, and if, like me, you’ve only been using it to make muffins this entire time, you’ve been missing out.

In fact, you can make breakfast, lunch and dinner only using a muffin in if you’d like. Everything from mini-pancakes to mini-pizzas can be made in your handy-dandy tin.

There’s really no reason not to use your muffin tin to make just delicious meals because it makes cooking and clean-up super easy. Not to mention, everything’s cuter in mini-version!

Check out these 15 meals that you never knew could be made in a muffin tin.

1. Pancakes

Make these pancakes from Family Fresh Meals, and you’ll have the cutest breakfast ever. Get the recipe.

2. Pies

Single-serving pies? Sounds like an awesome idea to me. A recipe can be found at Tablespoon.

3. Omelets

Combine eggs, ham, spinach or whatever you want and pop your tin in the oven for a healthy and simple meal option. Get the recipe from Just a Pinch.

This a great way to keep from dropping anything out of your taco shell. I can’t believe I didn’t think of this before. Get the recipe from Kevin & Amanda.

Stuff your brownies with peanut butter or caramel for an ooey, gooey treat. This recipe from Baked Perfection can show you the way.
