Better than Starbucks

If you have had Starbucks Sous Vide Egg Bites, you know how good they are. They are creamy, light, fluffy, tender, and full of flavor.

But they are also expensive and only available in 3 flavor combinations.

By making Egg Bites at home, not only do you save money, but you can add WHATEVER fillings you want or make a variety to please everyone in your family.

What you Need to Make Egg Bites

Instead of needing a sous vide machine, this recipe is made in an electric pressure cooker in silicone egg bite molds. The moist heat keeps these egg bites just as light and fluffy as they turn out in sous-vide cooking.

This base recipe for egg bites starts with eggs, cottage cheese, salt, and pepper. The cottage cheese will keep the egg bites super creamy and flavorful.

As for what else to add, the options are up to you!

Flavor Combinations

• Bacon and Gruyere: Add in 2 slices of chopped bacon and ¼ cup shredded Gruyere/Swiss cheese.
• Roasted Red Pepper: Add in ¼ cup shredded Monterrey Jack cheese, ¼ cup chopped roasted red peppers, and 2 tablespoons chopped spinach.
• Ham and Cheddar: Add in ¼ cup diced ham and ¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese.
• Mushroom and Swiss: Add in ¼ cup sliced sauteed mushrooms and ¼ cup shredded Swiss cheese.

How to Make Egg Bites in the Instant Pot

Step One: Prepare Egg Mixture

In a blender, place the eggs, cottage cheese, salt, pepper, and any shredded cheese you are using. Blend until well combined.

Using a blender allows the cottage cheese to blend up into the eggs and keeps these bites super creamy.

Step Two: Assemble Egg Bites

Divide the bacon (or filling of your choice) evenly between the egg bite molds.

Pour the egg mixture into each egg mold, dividing the egg mixture evenly between the molds. Each mold should be filled about three-fourths of the way full. 

Cover the mold tightly with foil. 

Step Three: Pressure Cook

Pour 1.5 cups of cold water into the inner pot of the pressure cooker and place a metal rack inside the inner pot. Place the egg bites on the rack, stacking the molds if you prepared a double batch.

Place the lid on the inner pot and be sure the vent knob is sealed. Set cook time for 9 minutes on high pressure.

Once the cooking time has elapsed, allow pressure to release for at least 10 minutes to keep the delicate texture intact.

Step Four: Unmold and Serve

Once 10 minutes have passed, remove the molds from the Instant Pot and invert onto a plate.
