Directions

  1. 1

    Generously spray two silicone baby food trays with nonstick cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until just blended. Evenly divide the meat among silicone cups. Pour the egg mixture over the ham until each cup is about two-thirds full. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over each egg bite.

  2. 2

    Pour 1 cup water into the pressure cooking pot and place a trivet in the bottom. Use a sling to lower the silicone trays, carefully stacking one on top of the other. Lock the lid in place. Select High Pressure and 11 minutes cook time for firmer egg bites. (Take a minute or two off the cook time if you prefer softer eggs.)

  3. 3

    When the cook time ends, turn off the pressure cooker. Let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes, then finish with a quick pressure release. When the valve drops, carefully remove the lid and use the sling to remove the trays. Place on a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes, then turn the tray over and gently squeeze to remove the egg bites from the silicone trays.

  4. 4

    Serve egg bites whole or sliced on top of mini croissants or toast.
