Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick spray or butter.
- Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl.
- Add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper to the eggs.
- Whisk the mixture vigorously until smooth and frothy, with no visible streaks of yolk or cream.
- Evenly pour the egg mixture into the prepared muffin cups, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the tops of the filled muffin cups.
- Place the muffin tin on the center rack of the oven.
- Bake for 12 to 18 minutes, until the egg bites are set in the center and the tops are lightly golden.
- Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the egg bites cool in the pan for 5 minutes.
- Gently run a small knife around the edges if needed, then lift the egg bites from the tin.
- Serve warm, or let cool completely before storing for on-the-go keto snacks.
Notes
- Store cooled egg bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Reheat in the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds or in a 300°F oven for 5 to 7 minutes.
- For extra flavor and very low carbs, you can add finely chopped cooked spinach, bell pepper, or turkey turkey bacon to the muffin cups before pouring in the egg mixture.
- These egg bites can be frozen; thaw in the refrigerator overnight and reheat before eating.
