3-Ingredient Cottage Cheese Egg Bites

Crazy easy and fluffy baked egg cups with cottage cheese (12g protein per serving)! Because what's better than a portable, filling breakfast?! Simply blend and make them your own with leftover veggies or cheese if you fancy. Fab for meal prepping and the only way I get my little kids to eat cottage cheese... ;)

Ingredients

  • 9 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup cottage cheese (I like Good Culture, low fat or full fat)
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt + freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional add-ins: 1/2 cup shredded cheese, 1 cup chopped spinach, 1/3 cup chopped fresh basil, or 1/2 cup cooked veggies

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350F. Line a regular muffin tin with silicone liners, paper liners sprayed with cooking spray (I use this silicone muffin pan).

  2. 2

    Place eggs, cottage cheese, salt, and several grounds of black pepper in a blender. Blend for 15-30 seconds, or until smooth.

  3. 3

    Pour mixture evenly into prepared muffin tin (they will be full). Add a sprinkle of optional cheese and veggies if desired, using a fork to dunk them into the mixture.

  4. 4

    Bake for 22 minutes. I love serving these alongside avocado toast or zucchini baked oatmeal with raspberries or kiwi for a fiber boost! Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Microwave for about 15 seconds to reheat.
