Recipe Tips

If you’re swapping regular bacon for the turkey bacon, you’ll want to precook the turkey a bit and use center cut bacon so there is less grease. Even if you don’t love turkey bacon, I urge you to try this recipe as written so there isn’t as much grease left in your egg white bite.
To reheat, pop these in the microwave for 30 seconds to a minute.
If you’d like to reduce the sodium in this recipe, strain your cottage cheese and rinse it before adding it to the blender.

How to make egg white bites in the Instant Pot:

If you don’t have a silicone egg bite mold, you can use small ramekins or scroll down for directions on how to use a muffin tray in the oven. This recipe takes about 30 minutes to make.

Prep the molds Grease the egg bite mold with cooking spray or oil.
Add the bacon Wrap the turkey bacon around the inside of each cup of the egg bite molds.
Make the bites Mix the chopped spinach and diced tomatoes and bell peppers together in a bowl. Spoon the vegetables into each cup of the egg bite mold. Fill each cup about 3/4 of the way to the top.
Blend the bites Blend together the egg whites, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, mozzarella, and basil for about 30 seconds.
Fill your cups Pour the egg mixture into each cup, filling them up. Cover the egg bite molds with foil.
Set up your pot Add 1 cup of water to the bottom of your Instant Pot insert. Place your foil topped molds onto your trivet, being careful to not stack cups directly on top of one another. Lower the egg bite molds into the Instant Pot.
Pressure Cook Close the lid and turn your pressure valve to sealing. Cook on high pressure for 8 minutes using the steam function. Allow the pressure to release naturally.
Remove from pot Carefully remove your molds from the Instant Pot. Remove the foil from each mold and check to ensure they’re fully cooked. If they’re not cooked all the way, put them back in the pot for 1-2 minutes cooking time with another natural pressure release.
Remove from the mold. When your egg white bites are fully cooked, allow them to cool for 15 minutes and then place a plate upside down on top of the mold and carefully flip them over. You might have to tap the bottom of each cup to release the egg white bite.

Oven Directions:

Preheat oven 375º.
Grease a muffin tin and wrap the turkey bacon around the inside of each cup.
Mix the spinach, tomatoes, and bell peppers together in a bowl. Spoon the vegetables in each cup, divided evenly between them.
Blend together the egg whites, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, mozzarella, and basil.
Pour the egg mixture into each tin–divide it equally between them.
Cover the muffin tin with foil.
Place a baking dish full of water on the bottom rack of your oven. This keeps the egg mixture from drying out and allows them to have the texture of the sous vide egg bites that Starbucks serves.
Place the egg white bites on the top rack of the oven and cook for 20 minutes. Remove and allow the bites to cool for 10-15 minutes before carefully removing them. *Be careful opening the oven, as there will be steam.
