Flavorful and Satisfying: Your New Go-To High Protein Egg Bites

Pro Tips for the Perfect High Protein Egg Bites:

  1. Grease Well: Coat the muffin pan generously with cooking spray to prevent sticking and ensure easy release.
  2. Blend Until Smooth: Blending the eggs and cottage cheese creates a creamy base for light and fluffy bites.
  3. Add Toppings Last: Sprinkle feta and black pepper on top before baking to add flavor and visual appeal.
  4. Let Them Rest: Allow egg bites to cool for a few minutes before removing so they hold their shape better.
  5. Meal Prep Friendly: Store leftovers in the fridge for up to five days, or freeze for easy reheating later.
