Cottage Cheese Egg Bites
A high-protein egg recipe for fluffy and tender egg bites!
Servings: 12 egg bites
Calories: 86kcal
Equipment
- Blender or Food Processor
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup diced ham
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 green onions diced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Grease a 12-muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray. I highly recommend using a silicone muffin pan, as it will be much easier to remove the egg bites than it will be from a non-stick muffin pan.
- Place the muffin pan on a baking sheet and pour 1 cup of water onto the baking sheet around the pan.
- To a large food processor or blender, add the eggs, cottage cheese, salt, and pepper.
- Blend until creamy.
- Transfer the egg mixture to a large or medium bowl and stir in the ham and green onions.
- Divide the egg mixture evenly between the 12 muffin cups.
- Bake for 25 minutes, until the egg bites and baked through and fluffy.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Storage - store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
Silicone Muffin Pan - these work best in a silicone muffin pan.
Reheat - I preferred reheating these in my air fryer at 400 degrees for 3-4 minutes, but you could also reheat them in the microwave.
