Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a regular muffin tin (with 12 wells) with avocado or cooking spray. You can also use reusable muffin liners if you want.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper together. Then decide which flavor variation you want and stir in the ingredients.
- Divide the mixture evenly among the greased muffin cups.
- Sprinkle the tops with extra cheese if desired.
- Bake for 14 - 18 minutes until the egg muffins are puffed up and set. They will deflate once removed from the oven.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- Don’t use paper muffin liners. This is my #1 tip for egg muffins. Do not use paper muffin cups! The liquid egg mixture will oversaturate the paper liners, and It will NOT work, and the paper will burn.
- Don’t over-whisk the eggs. Just whisk the eggs until they are combined. Over-blending could cause the egg bites to be flat and sink.
- Meal prep them. You can store them in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze them for up to 3 months. The perfect meal prep snack and breakfast (even for kids).
- Don’t overcook the egg bites. Overcooked egg bites are dry and tough. Keep an eye on the clock!
- Make them dairy-free. Swap the cheese for a dairy-free alternative and the milk with almond or cashew milk.
- Milk: You can use dairy-free almond milk or cashew milk. You can also use heavy cream.
- Freezing: Let the keto egg bites cool, then place them in a freezer-safe bag or airtight container. You can freeze them for up to 3 months. When you are ready to enjoy them, reheat them in the microwave for 60 – 90 seconds on high or until warm.
- Storing: For best results, store leftover egg bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Reheating: Reheat in the microwave for 20 – 30 seconds or until warm.
