Make fluffy, high-protein egg bites at home using your oven. This easy recipe is perfect for meal prep and tastes just like your favorite coffee shop version.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (full fat or low fat)
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/4 cup cooked, crumbled bacon (optional add-in)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh spinach (optional add-in)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • Cooking spray

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
  2. In a blender, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, salt, and pepper. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth, about 30 seconds. This step creates the fluffy texture.
  3. If using add-ins like bacon or spinach, divide them evenly among the prepared muffin cups.
  4. Carefully pour the blended egg mixture over the add-ins in each cup, filling them about three-quarters full.
  5. Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the top of the egg mixture in each cup.
  6. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the egg bites cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes before carefully removing them.
  8. Serve immediately or cool completely before storing for meal prep.

Notes

  • For a true Starbucks copycat texture, use a blender to ensure the cottage cheese is fully incorporated.
  • These egg bites are excellent for low carb and keto diets.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave for 30-45 seconds.
  • You can substitute Greek yogurt for cottage cheese for a slightly different texture.
