simple recipe for baked egg white bites with variation ideas

Ingredients

  • 8 egg whites
  • ⅓ cup cottage cheese
  • ¼ cup bacon bits
  • 2 tablespoons green onion (chopped)
  • ¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
  • salt and pepper

Directions

  1. 1

    In a mixing bowl, separate the egg whites from the yolks. You can reserve the yolks for another use (like French toast or creme brûlée).

  2. 2

    Whisk in the cottage cheese, bacon bits, and green onion.

  3. 3

    In a well greased muffin pan, spoon in the batter.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle salt and pepper over the top along with the cheddar cheese, if using.

  5. 5

    Bake at 350°F for 25 minutes or until the eggs look set.

  6. 6

    The bites will puff at the end of the baking time but will deflate some as they cool. Allow them to cool before removing from the pan.
