August 1, 2021 By Heidi 34 Comments

I may get paid for ads or purchases made through links in this post.

You’ll never toss out another egg once you know How to Freeze Eggs for Later Use! Frozen eggs are great for baking, cooking, and camping, too!

Whether you’ve got baskets of overflowing eggs thanks to your Backyard Chickens, or you’ve stocked up on eggs for a great price at the grocery store… if you can’t use them up before they go bad, just freeze them! This simple little trick for How to Freeze Eggs for Later Use will save you so much money.

Once you know how to freeze eggs, you’ll never need to toss any out again. Plus you’ll never run out of eggs either, if you always keep extras in the freezer! It really is the easiest way to preserve eggs, and works wonderfully when you need to use them later for baking and cooking, or whipping up some scrambled eggs for breakfast. They’re even great to add to the cooler for your next Camping Trip!

So are you ready to learn another fun Kitchen Tip and food preservation hack?

Here’s my favorite trick for how to freeze eggs in muffin tins…

What You’ll Need to Freeze Eggs:

  • Fresh Eggs
  • Nonstick Cooking Spray {works MUCH better than traditional muffin tins}
  • Silicone Muffin Mold
  • Small Cookie Sheet

How to Freeze Eggs in Muffin Tins:

  1. First you’ll want to place your silicone muffin mold on a small cookie sheet. This will help support the shape once you fill it with eggs.
  2. Now spray each section lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. Then one by one, just whisk your egg lightly in a small bowl or glass measuring cup, then pour each whisked egg into one individual section of a silicone cupcake liner.
  4. Carefully place tray and mold with eggs into the freezer and flash freeze for about 5 hours, or until eggs have frozen completely.
  5. After eggs have frozen, simply remove them from your silicone muffin mold. Try pressing up from underneath, and they should just pop right out.
  6. Transfer frozen eggs to a Gallon Freezer Ziploc Bag, removing as much air as possible, and place back in your freezer.
  7. Eggs can last up to 6 months in the freezer.

How to Use Frozen Eggs in Baking and Cooking:

The evening before you’ll be needing your eggs, simply transfer however many eggs you’ll need from the freezer to the refrigerator in a small bowl, allowing them to thaw in the fridge overnight. Then use as you normally would in your cooked or baked goods. How easy is that?!?

Now… I’ve got even more fabulous Kitchen Tips and Tricks to share with you that will save you so much time and effort.

    This is great. Do you need to slightly whisk them first or can you just crack them into the muffin mold?

      Hi Renee ~ you’ll want to slightly whisk each egg before pouring into each section of your silicone muffin pan that you’ve sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. 🙂

    Heidi,

    Ahem, not that naive, but I had heard freezing human eggs for later conception by some ambitious career women. But, yes like Angie I never thought it was a possibility with other eggs too. Great hack though. Thank you!
