Bacon and Red Pepper Egg Bites. Egg bites are perfect for breakfast or anytime. You can make your own in minutes with this easy low carb, protein filled recipe using an Egg Bite Maker.

Bacon and Red Pepper Egg Bites

Have you ever had egg bites? They’re my favorite breakfast! Starbucks makes wonderful egg bites but they can be pricey. I found the easiest way to make your own egg bites for a fraction of the price.

Single Serving Recipe Ideas

These egg bits are single serving (but really are enough for two people so you can share). My friends are also sharing single serving recipes today too! Scroll down to grab their recipe ideas!

What Makes Egg Bites So Creamy?

The secret to making egg bits is using the steam method, known as
Sous vide.Sous vide is a method of cooking where you vacuum seal food and use a regulated water bath to precisely cook food to a certain temperature. TO use a Sous vide you need to invest in a vacuum sealer as well as a Sous vide machine which is bulky and costs between $100-$500.

Egg Bite Maker

Instead of investing in a Sous vide machine to make egg bites I decided to try a little machine called an Egg Bite Maker! The Dash Egg Bite Maker is so cute! It’s small and easy to store and it uses steam to cook the egg bites which mimics the cooking of a Sous vide machine! And at less than $20 it was the perfect solution to my egg bite dilemma. In less than a week I had gained back the amount that I was spending at Starbucks for these light and fluffy breakfast items! Another plus is that I can make individual cheesecakes and flan with this machine too!

Use this basic recipe and then add in your favorite items to change up basic egg bites.

How to Use an Egg Bite Maker

• Place your egg bite maker on a flat surface.
• An egg bite maker comes with the machine which opens like a waffle maker, except inside are flat heating plates. There is an indicator light on top which tells you when the egg bite maker is heated up.
• There are also four silicone cups that fit inside the egg bite maker.
• You fill one cup with water, pour the water inside the egg bite maker on the heating plate.
• Spraying the inside of the silicone cups with cooking spray will let the egg bits pop out easier.
• Then fill the four cups with your egg mixture 3/4 way full so they don’t overflow when cooking.
• If you are adding toppings, put the toppings on the bottom of the silicone cups and then pour your egg mixture over the toppings.
• Close the lid and allow the eggs to cook for 7-10 minutes, or until the water on the cooking surface has completely evaporated.
• When eggs are done, unplug the machine and turn the silicone cups upside down and the egg bites will pop out. If the egg bites are stuck, gently squeeze the silicone cups to help them release the egg bites.
