From Coop to Kitchen
In the video, I’ll walk you through the process from start to finish — including gathering fresh eggs from my backyard chickens. But don’t worry, store-bought eggs work just as well. What really matters is the simple, wholesome ingredients and the love you put into them.
Ingredients You’ll Need:
4 large eggs
A splash of cream (for extra fluffiness)
Salt, black pepper, basil (or your favorite seasoning blend)
Shredded cheese (cheddar, Gruyère, or Parmesan — mix it up!)
Bacon bits (cooked and crispy)
Quick & Easy Steps:
Prep Your Pan: Spray a muffin tin lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Mix It Up: Cook your bacon until crispy. Whisk the eggs with cream, cheese, bacon, and seasonings in a bowl.
Pour & Bake: Fill each muffin cup about ¾ full.
Bake: Pop in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10–12 minutes, or until the tops are set and slightly golden.
Enjoy: Let cool slightly, then dig in or store for later!
Why You’ll Love These:
Budget-friendly: No more $5 breakfast runs.
Customizable: Swap bacon for veggies, use dairy-free cheese, or add herbs from your garden.
Meal-prep approved: Make a batch and keep in the fridge or freezer for easy meals all week.
Skip the drive-thru and treat yourself to a warm, cheesy breakfast you can feel good about. These homemade egg bites are proof that quick food doesn’t have to mean compromise.
