Egg Bites Recipe
I am guilty of spending a lot of money on Starbucks egg bites and dunkin egg bites – mostly out of convenience. Many times I find myself out doing errands and starving leaving me little options for a snack. The healthiest option at a drive through happens to be Starbucks egg bites. In a pinch they are fine but certainly not something I would eat everyday.
The main ingredients are cottage cheese, eggs, gluten free flour, peppers, spinach, mushrooms and shredded cheese.
By making your own, you will not only save money but you have control over the amount of salt and other added ingredients.
Easy Cottage Cheese Quiche Muffins with Veggies
Ingredients
- 6 eggs
- 1 cup Hood Cottage Cheese with Chive
- 1/2 cup Hood Half and Half
- 1 cup chopped fresh spinach
- 1 cup chopped green and yellow peppers
- 1 cup chopped mushrooms
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup gluten free flour you can use regular flour too
- 2 tbsp basil
- 1 tsp salt
- Spray cooking butter for muffin tins
Instructions
- Whisk eggs
- Stir in all ingredients except the flour
- Once mixed, stir in flour
- Spray 12 muffin tin with butter (grease muffin tin)
- Spoon mixture into muffin tin almost to the top (a ladle works good)
- Sprinkle a pinch of cheddar cheese on each muffin
- Wipe any residue/butter on tin with wet paper towel to prevent burning around muffins
- Bake 400 degrees for 20 minutes or until golden brown
- Makes 12 muffins
Egg bites are similar to a quiche but do not have shell making these protein packed muffins delicious and a healthy grab-n-go breakfast snack.
Parchment baking cups tend to work the best if you are making these as to-go snacks. The parchment keeps the muffins from sticking to the paper.
If you are not a fan of veggies, just add what you love. If you are a meat lover, try bacon or ham bites.

These egg bite muffins are fantastic. Even our 10 yo grandson gave them a thumbs up. I made the recipe just as written and loved it, but I can also see how I might add my own variations next time. Adding some bacon or sausage crumbles would be good, changing the cheese and/or veggies would be easy, but as I said, perfect as written. Yum!
Yes definitely adding bacon would be yummy! 🙂
