Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350° F. Grease a 24-cup mini muffin pan and place aside.
In a large measuring cup or bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until fully combined.
8 large eggs, ½ cup milk, ½ tsp salt, ¼ tsp pepper
Sprinkle the cheese and bacon evenly in the muffin cups.
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese, ½ cup cooked & crumbled bacon
Pour the egg mixture over top, filling each cup most of the way up
Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes, or until fully cooked through.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes in the pan before removing. Serve warm.

Notes

don't over bake the egg bites or it will leave you with dry eggs!
to store: allow them to cool completely and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days, or the freezer for up to 2 months.
to thaw: allow the egg bites to sit in the fridge overnight, or at room temperature until defrosted.
to reheat: I prefer to pop these in the microwave until warmed through, but you can also reheat them in the oven, toaster oven, or air fryer.
