Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
- 0.25 cup red bell pepper, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons green onions, sliced
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter, softened
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a mini muffin tin with the softened butter to prevent sticking.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs thoroughly until combined. Add the whole milk, salt, and black pepper, and whisk again until the mixture is smooth.
Step 3
Stir in the cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, chopped red bell pepper, and sliced green onions, ensuring even distribution throughout the egg mixture.
Step 4
Carefully pour or spoon the egg mixture into the greased mini muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full to allow room for expansion as they bake.
Step 5
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 6
Allow the egg bites to cool in the tin for a few minutes before carefully removing them with a small spatula or a butter knife.
Step 7
Serve the egg bites immediately, or let them cool completely before storing them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat as needed when ready to eat.
