EGG WHITE BREAKFAST BITES

These low-calorie, low-fat egg bites make a quick weekday breakfast and they're equally as convenient for midday snacks. In order not to waste egg yolks and to save time, I like to use a carton of liquid egg whites. Egg whites tend to be rubbery, so adding in the cottage cheese helps make them creamier. You can store extras in the freezer and reheat as needed.

EGG WHITE BITES

My husband actually calls these 'mini egg white pizzas,' because they puff up a lot in the oven, then deflate while cooling--and end up looking like little pizzas! No matter what you call them, they taste pretty good, and make for an easy grab-and-go snack! Extras may be frozen, and reheated before serving.

cooking spray
2 cups egg whites
⅓ cup Greek yogurt
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
1 cup finely chopped fresh spinach
½ cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
  • Combine egg whites, Greek yogurt, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and cayenne in a bowl; whisk until smooth and no lumps remain. Mix in red bell pepper, spinach, and Cheddar cheese.
  • Divide egg mixture between the 12 muffin cups, filling until almost full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until egg bites puff up substantially and begin to brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes; bites will deflate substantially at this time. Run a knife around the edges and bottoms to loosen and remove from the cups. Allow to cool to room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use large eggs for bigger and fluffier egg white bites.
  • Make sure the egg whites are at room temperature before whipping them. This will help them reach their full volume and create a lighter texture.
  • Don't overbeat the egg whites. Overbeaten egg whites will become dry and crumbly.
  • Add your desired seasonings and mix-ins before baking. This is a great way to customize your egg white bites and make them your own.
  • Bake the egg white bites in a preheated oven. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Let the egg white bites cool slightly before serving. This will help them set and make them easier to handle.

Conclusion:

Egg white bites are a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. They're perfect for meal prep, as they can be made ahead of time and reheated when you're ready to eat them. With so many different ways to customize them, there's sure to be an egg white bite recipe that everyone will enjoy.
