Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 9 large large eggs
  • 1.5 cups cottage cheese (360 ml)
  • 1 tsp salt (1 Teelöffel)
  • 6 strips cooked bacon (6 Streifen)
  • 2/3 cup shredded gruyere cheese (100 g)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a 12-slot muffin tin with spray oil.
  2. In a blender, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, and salt. Blend until you achieve a smooth mixture.
  3. Cut each strip of bacon in half again, and place a half strip into each muffin slot.
  4. Sprinkle the shredded gruyere cheese over the bacon in each muffin slot.
  5. Pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture evenly into each muffin slot, filling them nearly to the top.
Baking
  1. Prepare a steam bath by placing a baking sheet on the bottom rack of the oven. Boil water on the stovetop and carefully pour the boiling water onto the baking sheet.
  2. Place the muffin tin on the middle rack of the oven. Remember to wear proper heat protective oven mitts!
  3. Close the oven and bake for 25 minutes.
Cooling and Serving
  1. After baking, carefully remove the muffin tin from the oven and turn off the heat, allowing the baking sheet to cool before taking it out.
  2. Let the egg bites cool slightly, then gently remove them from the muffin tin and enjoy!

Notes

Serve hot for the best flavor and texture, paired with fresh fruit or a salad. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat in the microwave for a quick breakfast.
