This baked egg bites recipe is an easy version of the egg bites made popular by that famous chain coffeehouse. I like them with hot sauce!
Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 5 small tri-color baby potatoes, thinly sliced
- ¼ stick butter
- 10 small eggs
- 1 small yellow bell pepper, finely chopped
- 1 small tomato, finely chopped
- ½ cup fresh spinach
- ¼ cup chopped ham
- ¼ cup chopped white onion
- 1 slice mozzarella cheese, cut into 12 cubes
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 2
Place a thin layer of potato slices in the bottom of each muffin cup. Add a little butter on top.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
Step 4
Mix together eggs, bell pepper, tomato, spinach, ham, and onion in a large bowl. Ladle egg mixture over warm potatoes. Top each muffin cup with a mozzarella cube.
Step 5
Continue baking until eggs are set, about 20 minutes.
Tips
You can substitute any other meat for the ham.

good , easy and handy for on the run
-
This is a delish & quick breakfast. I load each muffin cup with and equal amount of ham, veggies and cheese first then pour egg mix on top so that each egg bite gets the same amount of ingredients. I also add a quarter tsp. of salt and pepper to the egg mix. I wrap each left over EB in a paper towel then seal in plastic wrap to store in fridge. Husband LOVES these and they reheat nicely in the micro.
-
Added dried mushrooms
-
I added, ham, tomato, green onion and shredded potato. Delicious!
-
I eliminated the ham as we are trying to eat less meat. Didn’t alter the recipe in any other way and it was great. I have tried it substiting sweet potato. Tastes good but the bottoms don’t stay as firm.
Note: have never had the commercial ones so can’t compare the two. -
Delicious, I added 1/4 cup of 18% coffee cream at the end and wisked for 20 seconds. Turned out great
-
Nice easy recipe to follow and can switch or add whatever fillings I liked.
-
These are a great, handy, on the go breakfast. This is the first recipe I tried with a thinly sliced potato on the bottom and it quite frankly didn?t work – fell out of each one. I added leftover sausage, green onion, mushrooms and a bit of shredded cheddar to mine. I think shredded potato would work, but the sliced potato on the bottom was a fail for me.
-
Did this and was excellent. Used a slice of Canadian bacon on the bottom then added egg with mushroom cheese and jalape?os. Was great.
-
I make these in mini muffin tin. Use shredded potatoes or a little cooked rice. Lots of saut?ed veges & bacon or ham or sausage. The girls in y office love them. So easy.
-
Made it as is. Loved it convenient.
-
Meh. I made this without the potatoes in the bottom. Its…okay. I found it a little bland. I may try again with some seasonings. Perhaps some crushed garlic mixed in with the eggs. Maybe spiced sausage instead of ham. Sadly underwhelmed.
-
I added some different ingredients .I don’t like peppers& onions! And I went with Sausage. It was, awesome! I fresh sealed them Individually, great as, a, snack& Sooo easy! Thank you
-
Excellent
-
These are so easy and tastes great. I have a question can cupcake liners be used in the muffin tins? It would make clean up a lot easier. I’m going to try it and see. Thanks for this easy recipe.
-
It was easy and tasty
-
I added random ingredients thar I had in my fridge and omitted meat altogether. I added heavy whipping cream in my eggs and they came out perfect
-
My mom made omelettes quite often for the family, but I never liked them, so as an adult I didn’t even try them. I tried this on a whim and loved it. I think the cheese and potato was perfect.
-
Excellent! Very flexible recipe. I used cooked sausage patties instead of ham, omitted spinach, and added mushrooms. I tried some with shredded hash brown potatoes & some with red potatoes sliced about 1/8-1/4″. I also tried different cheeses on top (Mozzarella, Cheddar, and American). We preferred the ones with the potato slices and Cheddar cheese. I prepared the eggs like I normally do for scrambling (Half ‘n’ Half, S&P, basil, dill). I did not mix the vegetables, but sprinkled some of each into each cup. Needed fewer eggs, and less tomato and bell pepper. Prep time was long, but worth it. After refrigerating, I reheated for 40 sec. each in microwave. These are a keeper! I’m sure the recipe would be just as good if made without my changes. This recipe can easily be adapted to your pantry and preferences. Thanks for the recipe.

Great base recipe with endless variation possibilities. I made some adjustments after reading the reviews and they turned out great! We were having friends stay with us so I made these ahead of time and we just heated them in the microwave 40s in the morning.
– I have teflon coated muffin pans so eliminated the cooking spray and butter.
– Used frozen hash brown potatoes but thawed/warmed them up before baking.
– Used breakfast sausage in half and ham in the other; both tasted great.
– Saut?ed mushrooms with garlic and salt. I would do this with any veggie.
– 8 eggs is more than enough; 10 not needed
– Seasoned eggs with salt, pepper, garlic, paprika, Lawry’s seasoned salt. Probably 1/2 tsp each but added a little at a time to taste.
– Layered ingredients into muffin tin: potatoes, meat, mushrooms; then ladle 1/4 cup egg mixture. Top with chives and cheese.
– Since the hash brown potatoes are already cooked, skip the first 5 min. bake. Just bake the pans at 350 for 20 min – they turned out perfect. -
I parboiled the potatoes then added egg with peppers and ham cheese . They were delicious.
-
This would be perfect with leftover taco meat and the chopped onions, tomatoes and avocado left from tacos then add Mexican or pepper Jack cheese. I will make these next time we have tacos!
-
The recipe was very easy for me and cathartic. I read one of the comments that shared that they was a little bland but I always season whatever I prepare because everyone has a different seasoning hand?salt and pepper is just not enough for my or my family?s taste. ??
-
Reading all the comments was a help. This is really a recipe one can play with. I diced the potatoes and left out the tomato. Definitely added salt and pepper. I used 7 jumbo eggs. I had Colby jack cheese on hand and used that.
I made this for men?s Bible study and it was huge hit. -
I make these all the time, but use different ingredients
I use bacon bits or ham bits
Lots of shredded cheese
And add peppers and onions as well -
I loved this recipe. I use Parmesan cheese instead of mozzarella. I added two extra eggs because I like a little more egg in my egg bites.
I am going to make them again and freeze them for later.Oh and I added salt and pepper.
