These creamy, cheesy Starbucks style egg bites are a quick and easy protein-packed breakfast or snack with a silky texture and rich flavor, perfect for busy mornings or brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs (room temperature)
  • ½ cup small-curd cottage cheese
  • ½ cup shredded cheese (Gruyere or sharp white cheddar)
  • 2 tablespoons milk (whole milk preferred, almond or oat milk optional)
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder (optional)
  • ¼ cup cooked bacon or ham bits (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives or parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Lightly grease a 6-cup muffin tin or silicone molds to prevent sticking.
  2. In a blender or food processor, combine 6 large eggs, ½ cup small-curd cottage cheese, 2 tablespoons milk, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, ¼ teaspoon garlic powder, and ¼ teaspoon onion powder. Blend until completely smooth and creamy, about 30 seconds.
  3. Transfer the blended egg mixture to a bowl. Stir in ½ cup shredded Gruyere or sharp white cheddar cheese and ¼ cup cooked bacon or ham bits if using. Fold in chopped chives or parsley for freshness.
  4. Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin or silicone molds, filling each about ¾ full.
  5. Place the tin on the middle rack of the oven. Bake for 22-25 minutes, or until the egg bites are set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
  6. Let the egg bites cool for 5 minutes before gently removing them from the molds.
  7. Serve warm or refrigerate for later. Reheat in the microwave or toaster oven for about 30 seconds on medium power.

Notes

Use room temperature eggs for fluffier bites. Blend thoroughly for a silky texture. Avoid overbaking to keep creaminess. Customize with mix-ins like spinach or mushrooms. For dairy-free, substitute cottage cheese with silken tofu and cheese with plant-based alternatives. Instant Pot steaming method available for sous vide texture.
