Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1 cup Gruyere cheese, shredded
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chives, chopped
- 0 cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Step 2
Lightly spray a muffin tin with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Step 3
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well combined.
Step 4
Add the cream cheese to the egg mixture and mix until smooth. You may want to use an electric mixer for a smoother consistency.
Step 5
Stir in the Gruyere cheese, crumbled bacon, salt, black pepper, and chopped chives.
Step 6
Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Step 7
Place the muffin tin in a larger baking dish filled with about an inch of warm water to create a water bath. This helps to keep the egg bites moist and prevents cracking.
Step 8
Carefully place the baking dish with the muffin tin in the preheated oven.
Step 9
Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and lightly golden on top.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before gently removing the egg bites from the muffin tin.
Step 11
Serve warm, or let cool completely and store in the refrigerator for up to four days, reheating before serving.
