Description

This is the only Veggie Egg Bites recipe you’ll need for a quick, make-ahead breakfast. They’re fluffy, cheesy, and packed with fresh veggies. No sticking to the pan, sinking, or soggy mess.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 large eggs
  • ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt

  • 1 cup baby spinach, chopped

  • ½ cup diced orange bell pepper

  • ½ cup quartered cherry or grape tomatoes

  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • Olive oil spray


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 12-cup ceramic muffin pan with olive oil, or line a metal muffin pan with non-stick paper liners and lightly spray with oil.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and sea salt until smooth and fully combined. 
  3. Evenly divide the spinach, bell pepper, and cherry tomatoes among the muffin cups. Carefully pour the egg mixture over the veggies, filling each cup about ½ full. Top with the cheddar cheese.
  4. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the egg bites are set. Let them cool for 5 minutes in the pan before removing. Enjoy warm or store for later.

Notes

Tip: Use a ceramic muffin pan or parchment-style liners for the easiest cleanup. Even with plenty of oil, I found that standard metal pans often cause sticking. Let the egg bites cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before removing.

To store, refrigerate them in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
