| Boilerpipe Text | I love these homemade Breakfast Egg Bites for a nutritious, protein-packed, healthy breakfast option. They are the ultimate breakfast-on-the-go recipe as well as a low calorie afternoon snack. You can customize them by adding your favorite veggies, such as spinach or broccoli.

Are egg bites a good breakfast?
Yes! Egg bites are the ideal make-ahead breakfast for busy mornings. They are hearty and packed with protein, making them a great choice to kickstart your day and stave off late-afternoon hunger. They’re not limited to breakfast, though; these Breakfast Egg Bites also work well as appetizers or in school lunch boxes. Kids will love them, and they offer a nice change from sandwiches.
Optional Ingredients
cooked bacon
sausage
chopped tomatoes
roasted red peppers
spinach
green peppers
broccoli
​Substitute the cheddar cheese with gruyere cheese, gouda cheese, or even cottage cheese.
My husband loves hot sauce with egg bites.
Tips for baking
I prefer bite-sized, but if you like them larger simply make a breakfast egg muffin in a regular sized muffin tin. This egg bite recipe will make about 12.
These egg bites tend to stick to the tray during cooking. Ensure you grease your muffin tin with cooking spray or use a high-quality non-stick muffin tray. Silicone molds work the best as you don’t have to grease them.
Why are my egg bites soggy?
If your egg bites turn out soggy, it’s likely due to either undercooking or including too many vegetables. If you’ve added more vegetables than my recipe suggests, consider sautéing them to reduce excess moisture.
How to store
These egg bites taste great right out of the oven, but you can also make them ahead of time and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. They taste great cold or you can reheat them in the microwave. Breakfast egg bites are so easy to prepare, making them an excellent choice for breakfast meal prep.
Can they be frozen?
Absolutely! Let the egg bites cool completely before freezing. I wrap them individually in plastic wrap and place in a freezer-friendly container. You can store your egg bites in the freezer for up to two months.
Reheating:
When you’re ready to reheat your egg bites, unwrap them from the plastic wrap and simply microwave them for 1-2 minutes or until they are warmed through.

THESE WERE SO AMAZING! I made them for my girlfriend and we both LOVED them! She doesn’t like ham so instead I sauteed rainbow cherry tomatoes and mushrooms in the oil from my jar of sundried tomatoes and some minced garlic. I used a muffin tray that’s about 2″ in diameter. Had to bake them for an extra 6 minutes or so. I didn’t have any cooking spray so just bushed the tray liberally with margerine and that did the trick. They popped out like nothing. These are so amazingly easy to make. I love that you can make them super tasty without any sugar or stuff like that. Totally something to experiment with! Love it!!\!

Easy and HEALTHY! I make these Egg Bites every year for our neighborhood July 4th Brunch — and they are very popular. I am often asked to share the recipe! It’s also easy to use a cup of leftover cooked veggies – I often use broccoli (chopped fine) instead of the peppers.

Big thing with spraying pan is to do it right before putting batter in so there is no time for non-stick spray to run down the sides of the muffin tins. They will stick less.

I use silicone muffin/cupcake holders in different sizes depending whether I am taking to work or eating at home. The egg bites done stick. After egg bites are done I put the holders in sink with hot water and soap, rinse and put in dish rack to drip dry.

| Readable Markdown | I love these homemade Breakfast Egg Bites for a nutritious, protein-packed, healthy breakfast option. They are the ultimate breakfast-on-the-go recipe as well as a low calorie afternoon snack. You can customize them by adding your favorite veggies, such as spinach or broccoli.

Egg bites are simply mini frittatas or mini egg muffins and this homemade recipe, in my opinion, is so much better than Starbucks egg bites! Add your own twist to this recipe by adding optional ingredients. My [*Black Bean Frittata Bites*](https://www.artandthekitchen.com/black-bean-frittata-bites/) are a super healthy variation to this recipe.
## Are egg bites a good breakfast?
Yes! Egg bites are the ideal make-ahead breakfast for busy mornings. They are hearty and packed with protein, making them a great choice to kickstart your day and stave off late-afternoon hunger. They’re not limited to breakfast, though; these Breakfast Egg Bites also work well as appetizers or in school lunch boxes. Kids will love them, and they offer a nice change from sandwiches.
## Optional Ingredients
- cooked bacon
- sausage
- chopped tomatoes
- roasted red peppers
- spinach
- green peppers
- broccoli
- ​Substitute the cheddar cheese with gruyere cheese, gouda cheese, or even cottage cheese.
- My husband loves hot sauce with egg bites.
## Tips for baking
I prefer bite-sized, but if you like them larger simply make a breakfast egg muffin in a regular sized muffin tin. This egg bite recipe will make about 12.
These egg bites tend to stick to the tray during cooking. Ensure you grease your muffin tin with cooking spray or use a high-quality non-stick muffin tray. Silicone molds work the best as you don’t have to grease them.
## Why are my egg bites soggy?
If your egg bites turn out soggy, it’s likely due to either undercooking or including too many vegetables. If you’ve added more vegetables than my recipe suggests, consider sautéing them to reduce excess moisture.

They taste great cold or you can reheat them in the microwave. Breakfast egg bites are so easy to prepare, making them an excellent choice for breakfast meal prep.
## Can they be frozen?
Absolutely! Let the egg bites cool completely before freezing. I wrap them individually in plastic wrap and place in a freezer-friendly container. You can store your egg bites in the freezer for up to two months.
## Reheating:
When you’re ready to reheat your egg bites, unwrap them from the plastic wrap and simply microwave them for 1-2 minutes or until they are warmed through.
