Hello food lovers! Today, I’m excited to share with you my absolute favorite yummy egg bite recipe. These bite-sized delights are not only easy to make but also packed with flavor. So, let’s dive right in!
First, let’s gather our ingredients. We’ll need:
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk (you can use almond or soy milk if you prefer)
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese (your choice of cheese, such as cheddar or mozzarella)
- 1/4 cup diced ham or bacon (optional, but adds a nice savory touch)
- 1/4 cup chopped vegetables (I like to use onions, peppers, or tomatoes)
- A pinch of salt and pepper
Now, let’s get to the cooking! Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Add in the cheese, ham or bacon, and vegetables, and mix everything together. Season with a little salt and pepper to taste.
Next, prepare a muffin tin by greasing it or using muffin liners. Pour the egg mixture evenly into the muffin cups. You can fill them up almost to the top as the eggs will not rise too much during baking.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and golden brown on top. The cooking time may vary depending on your oven, so keep an eye on them towards the end.
Once done, remove the pan from the oven and let the egg bites cool for a few minutes before serving. These egg bites are best enjoyed warm, but they also make for a great snack or breakfast on the go.
Here’s a few variations and toppings to take your egg bites to the next level:
- Add some chopped herbs like basil or chives for an extra burst of flavor.
- Swap the cheese for a different variety, like feta or goat cheese.
- Top with a dollop of sour cream or guacamole for a creamy twist.
- Drizzle with hot sauce or salsa for a bit of a kick.
These egg bites are incredibly versatile and can be customized to your liking. You can even make a batch ahead of time and store them in the fridge for a quick and easy breakfast throughout the week.
I hope you enjoy making and indulging in these absolute favorite yummy egg bites as much as I do! Let me know in the comments if you have any variations or toppings of your own that you’d like to share. Happy cooking and happy eating! 🍳🥚
Until next time, foodies! 🍽️
