Method
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Place your silicone egg bite mold inside a larger baking dish. If you haven't already, cook your bacon until crispy and crumble it.
- In a blender, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, shredded Gruyère cheese, melted butter, salt, and pepper. Blend on high for 30-45 seconds until the mixture is completely smooth and frothy.
- Lightly grease the cups of your silicone mold. Distribute the crumbled bacon evenly among the cups. Pour the blended egg mixture over the bacon, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
- Carefully place the baking dish with the mold in the preheated oven. Pour hot water into the larger baking dish until it comes halfway up the sides of the silicone mold.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes. The egg bites are done when they are just set and have a slight wobble in the very center. They will firm up as they cool.
- Remove the baking dish from the oven and let the egg bites cool in the mold for about 5 minutes. Gently remove them from the mold and serve warm.
Notes
Storage: Store cooled egg bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Reheating: Microwave for 30-60 seconds or until warmed through. For best results, reheat in an air fryer at 350°F for 3-4 minutes.
Freezing: Egg bites can be frozen for up to 2 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before reheating.
