Ingredients

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 4 strips of bacon cooked until crisp and finely minced
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup grated Gruyère cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and coat the cups of a 12-slot muffin tin generously with non-stick spray.
  • In a blender, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, salt, and pepper, and blend until the mixture is fully emulsified and smooth.
  • Transfer the blended mixture to a mixing bowl and gently fold in the shredded Gruyère cheese.
  • Distribute the egg mixture evenly among the muffin tin cavities, filling each approximately two-thirds full to allow room for expansion during baking.
  • Sprinkle the chopped bacon over each portion, pressing lightly so the pieces settle into the egg mixture.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the egg bites have set completely and the tops are slightly golden.
  • Once removed from the oven, allow the egg bites to rest in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes before using a spoon to carefully lift them out. Serve warm.
