# Expert Hacks:
01 -
- They bake into perfect portioned little omelets you can grab with one hand
- The feta gets all golden and salty in spots while staying creamy inside
- Reheats beautifully so breakfast is done for days
02 -
- Overfilling the cups makes them spill over and stick to the pan
- Letting them rest in the tin for those 5 minutes prevents collapsing
03 -
- Squeeze excess water from thawed frozen spinach if using that instead of fresh
- Room temperature ingredients bake more evenly
