Fluffy Cottage Cheese Egg Bites Recipe


  • Author: David Andersson
  • Total Time: 30–35 minutes
  • Yield: 12 egg bites 1x

Description

If you have ever stepped inside a premium coffee house, you have likely seen those velvety, melt-in-your-mouth breakfast rounds glowing under the heat lamp. Those are sous vide egg bites, and while they taste incredible, buying them every day can quickly drain your wallet.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or Monterey Jack)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Optional mix-ins:
    • cooked bacon or turkey bacon
    • spinach
    • diced bell peppers
    • mushrooms
    • green onions

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Grease a muffin tin well or use silicone muffin cups.
  • Blend eggs, cottage cheese, shredded cheese, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  • Stir in any mix-ins.
  • Pour mixture into muffin cups about 3/4 full.
  • Bake for 20–25 minutes until puffed and set.
  • Cool a few minutes before removing.

Notes

These cottage cheese egg bites are one of my favorite quick breakfasts — soft, cheesy, and packed with protein. They’re easy to customize with whatever veggies or cheese you have on hand, and they reheat perfectly for busy mornings.
