Description
Creamy, Protein-Packed Ricotta Egg Bites Perfect for Meal Prep or a Low-Carb Breakfast
Ingredients
9 large eggs
1 cup ricotta cheese (part-skim)
Dash of salt
Dash of black pepper
Instructions
Preheat Oven and Prepare Egg Mixture:
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). In a blender or using an immersion blender, blend eggs, ricotta cheese, salt, and pepper until smooth and fully combined.
Set Up Silicone Molds:
Place silicone molds in a baking pan or on a sheet pan. Carefully pour the egg mixture into each mold, leaving a small gap at the top for expansion.
Create a Hot Water Bath:
Pour hot tap water into the pan around the molds until it reaches halfway up the sides. This water bath ensures even cooking and a creamy texture.
Bake the Egg Bites:
Transfer the water bath with molds to the bottom rack of your preheated oven. Bake for 25–35 minutes, or until the egg bites are fully set and no longer jiggle.
Cool and Store:
Let the egg bites cool in the pan, then remove them from the molds. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Enjoy warm or cold!
