• milk - helps make th egg bites lighter and fluffier

How do you make this egg muffin recipe without sticking?

The best way to keep this egg cup recipe from sticking is to invest in silicone muffin tins - I have never had anything even slightly stick when baking in silicone. If that is not an option then you need to add nonstick cooking spray to the muffin cavities.This has been proven to be very effective in helping to remove the egg bites without them tearing, splitting, or breaking. Oil, butter, shortening have never yielded as good of results as cooking spray, and still nothing comes close to my trusty silicone!

How long do egg bites keep?

As long as you store them in an airtight container in the fridge, they should keep fresh for 3-5 days without issue.

How long do egg bites last in the freezer?

The great thing about making your own egg bites is that you can freeze them for later. Store them in a freezer-safe bag, and then add them to the freezer. They should stay good for up to 2 months if they are stored properly. To thaw them, move the bag to the fridge and let them thaw for a few hours or microwave in 30 second intervals to speed the thawing process.

Are egg bites healthy?

Eggs are a great source of protein, and are typically lower in calories as well. Eating egg bites is a good way to add health to your daily caloric intake without excess fat or carbs. These eggs also have lots of veggies in each bite which adds to their nutrition. The key to eating healthy is to remember that moderation is important!

Can egg bites be reheated?

You bet! As long as you reheat them until they are just warmed all the way through, they’re a great snack to grab and enjoy. To reheat egg bites, just add them to a microwave-safe plate and warm them for 30 seconds. Check to see if they’re hot enough, and if not, warm them for a few more seconds. Be careful not to microwave for too long or the eggs can get chewy and rubbery.

Can you eat egg bites cold?

Yes, you can. This is one of the other great benefits of making grab-and-go treats like this. If you want, you can eat it just like it is right out of the fridge. Just pop it into your mouth, and go about your day! There is no need to reheat it as it is already fully cooked. I enjoy both warm and cold egg bites, I promise its not like eating cold scrambled eggs!
