Easy Egg Bites Recipe
Ingredients
- 12 large eggs
- ⅔ cup spinach, finely chopped
- ⅔ cup sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped
- ⅔ cup sweet onion, finely chopped
- ⅔ cup crumbled feta
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉. Whisk together 12 eggs, salt and black pepper in a pitcher or container that makes pouring easy! Pour eggs, halfway up each cup of a greased or nonstick muffin pan. The muffin pan should hold 12 muffins!
- Add roughly 2 heaping teaspoons of spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, onion, and feta to each muffin cup. After adding mix-ins, stir each cup with a spoon.
- Tip: I like to add mix-ins to each egg bite instead of stirring into whisked eggs. This way, you end up with the perfect amount of each mix-in in each bite!
- Bake for 18-20 minutes until eggs look set (not runny). Let cool slightly and serve.
