Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Spray a 12-cup muffin tin generously with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Evenly distribute the cooked bacon, shredded cheese, diced bell pepper, chopped spinach, and green onions into the prepared muffin cups.
Carefully pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about 3/4 full. Stir each cup gently to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the omelet muffins are set and lightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Run a knife around the edges of each muffin to release them if necessary.
Serve warm, or allow them to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
To reheat, microwave the muffins on high for 20-30 seconds, or until warmed through.
