🥚 Ingredients

Ingredient	Amount
Large eggs	8
Shredded cheese (cheddar, Colby Jack, or preferred variety)	1 cup
Cooked bacon, crumbled	1 cup (about 8 slices)
Nonstick spray, oil, or butter	For greasing the muffin pan

👩‍🍳 Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Oven and Pan

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly coat a standard 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray, oil, or butter to prevent the egg bites from sticking.

Step 2: Whisk the Eggs

Crack the eggs into a bowl or large measuring cup. Beat until the mixture is smooth and slightly airy.

Step 3: Mix in the Ingredients

Add the shredded cheese and cooked bacon to the eggs. Stir until everything is evenly distributed.

Step 4: Fill the Muffin Cups

Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup about three-quarters full.

Gently tap the pan on the counter to release any large air pockets.

Step 5: Bake the Egg Bites

Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until the egg bites are slightly puffed, fully cooked in the center, and lightly golden on top.

Step 6: Cool and Serve

Allow the egg bites to rest in the pan for 3–5 minutes. Carefully loosen the edges with a knife or small spatula, then remove them from the muffin cups.

Serve warm, or let them cool completely for later.

🧊 Storage Instructions

Place leftover egg bites in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days.

To reheat, microwave for 20–30 seconds until warmed through.

For longer storage, freeze egg bites for up to 2 months. Thaw them overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
