Instant Pot Egg Bites Recipe
They are currently all of the rages. My kids really like ham ones, and since I had leftover ham, I switched out the classic bacon, for the ham. They worked out wonderfully. They had great light and favorable taste. You can either freeze these for later, or make a whole batch, and then eat them during the week. They also make great snacks. And, if you learn to make a Starbucks coffee as good as they can, you can really have a Starbucks experience at home. That would save you a ton of money!

Frequently Asked Questions
How Do You Store Egg Bites?
Egg bites are a popular breakfast or snack option, but they can be tricky to store. If you’re not careful, your egg bites can go bad quickly. Here are a few tips for storing your egg bites so they stay fresh and delicious.
First, make sure the egg bites are completely cooled before putting them in storage. Once they’re cool, you can put them in an airtight container or freezer bag. You can also freeze them if you plan to eat them later. Just make sure to thaw them overnight in the refrigerator.
How Do You Reheat Egg Bites?
Reheating your egg bites is simple and easy – all you need to do is microwave them. Start by putting the egg bites on a plate or in a bowl. Then place the plate into the microwave and cook for approximately 45 seconds, depending on how much food you’re reheating at one time. If they’re not hot enough after 45 seconds, give them an additional 15 seconds in the microwave. Add more time in small increments if necessary to ensure the egg bites are hot throughout the entire dish.
Can You Make A Double Batch?
Yes, I often make a double batch since they are great for meal prep, and a great make ahead breakfast. You can simply stack the egg bites molds on top of the mold. I often use aluminum foil and wrap them up, so they don’t leak on each other.
Can you Make These With All Egg Whites?
Yes, you would need to increase the egg whites to 8 whole egg whites.
Is The Cottage Cheese Necessary?
No, you do not need to use cottage cheese. In fact, many people love the fact that this recipe is an Instant Pot Bites Without Cottage Cheese! It’s easy and low carb!
Can I Add More Fillings?
Yes, there are so many more fillings that you can add, some of my favorite flavor combinations are green onions, bell peppers, goat cheese, and feta cheese! Experiment with these recipes for a healthy breakfast!

I can’t find the oatmeal bites instant pot recipe. There was a link and now it’s gone? Is there any way you can repost? I love the simplicity of your recipes….

These are super easy and very yummy. I probably added more ham & cheese than was called for, but who measures? I used a pretty salty Black Forrest Ham so probably didn’t add in a whole teaspoon of salt. Next time I might throw in some green onion if I have some around. But otherwise this is a keeper.
