Cottage Cheese Egg Bites

Light and protein-packed, Cottage Cheese Egg Bites make a perfect quick breakfast or snack that’s both creamy and satisfying.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Cooking spray or butter, for greasing

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or butter.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, cottage cheese, cheddar cheese, chopped chives, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
  4. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and lightly golden on top.
  5. Allow to cool slightly before removing from the tin. Serve warm or store in the refrigerator for later.

Notes

For added flavor, try mixing in diced bell peppers or cooked bacon before baking. These egg bites also freeze well for convenient meal prep.
