How To Make Starbucks Ham and Cheddar Sous Vide Egg Bites
Step One: In a blender or bowl, combine eggs, cottage cheese, shredded cheddar, diced ham, heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Blend or whisk until smooth and well combined.
Step Two: Grease silicone egg bite molds or small ramekins, then evenly pour the egg mixture into each mold, leaving a little space at the top.
Step Three: Preheat your air fryer to 300 degrees F (150°C) for 3-5 minutes.
Step Four: Place the filled molds or ramekins into the air fryer basket. Set air fryer temperature to 300 degrees F (150°C) and set cook time for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and slightly golden on top.
Step Five: Insert a toothpick or knife in the center of an egg bite; if it comes out clean, they’re done. Let the egg bites cool slightly before removing from the molds. Serve warm and enjoy!
Starbucks Ham and Cheddar Sous Vide Egg Bites Recipe Tips

Storing Instructions
Store leftover Starbucks Ham and Cheddar Sous Vide Egg Bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. To reheat, microwave them gently in 20-30 second intervals until warmed through, or warm them in the air fryer at a low temperature for a few minutes to maintain their creamy texture. Avoid overheating to prevent drying out.
Starbucks Ham and Cheddar Sous Vide Egg Bites Recipe Faqs
Can I use a different type of cheese? Yes! While cheddar is classic, you can substitute it with Swiss, Monterey Jack, Gruyère, or a cheese blend based on your taste.
Do I need a sous vide machine? Nope! This version is made in the air fryer using silicone molds, so you don’t need any special sous vide equipment.
How do I make them extra fluffy? Blending the egg mixture until smooth and airy helps create that signature Starbucks-style texture. You can also add a tablespoon of cottage cheese or Greek yogurt for extra creaminess.
Can I make these ahead of time? Yes. Store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for longer storage. Reheat in the microwave or air fryer.
What molds work best in the air fryer? Use silicone muffin cups or a silicone egg bite mold that fits comfortably in your air fryer basket without touching the sides.
