Ingredients

  • 2 cups liquid egg whites
  • 1 cup cottage cheese 2% or higher
  • ¼ cup red pepper finely diced
  • 2 tablespoons green onion finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup cheddar cheese, shredded

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Grease a muffin pan generously with cooking spray.
  • In a large measuring cup add egg whites, cottage cheese, diced red pepper, green onions and spices. Whisk to combine.
  • Add cheese to the egg mixture. Stir to combine.
  • Divide mixture evenly into muffin pan, filling each cup about ¾ full.
  • Bake for 26-28 minutes or until the eggs look set. The eggs bites will puff up but they will deflate as they start to cool. Cool completely before removing from pan. Makes 12 egg white bites.

Notes

Make sure to liberally grease the muffin pan because Egg White Breakfast Bites have a tendency to stick to the pan. I prefer to use a silicone muffin pan because you can easily pop the egg white bites out of the pan after they have cooled.
Don't overcook the Egg White Breakfast Bites or they will be rubbery. Cook the egg white bites until the eggs look set.
Egg White Breakfast Bites can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container or bag for 3-4 days.
Egg White Breakfast Bites freeze well. Wrap each bite in plastic wrap before transferring to an airtight freezer bag or container. Freeze up to three months. Thaw in the refrigerator or at room temperature.
