Equipment
- Air Fryer (Mine is the Instant Vortex Plus XL)
- Egg bite molds
- Mixing bowl
- Spoon
- Knife
- Grater
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- ½ cup shredded cheese e.g., cheddar or mozzarella
- ½ dried basil
- ½ teaspoon Salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, cheese, salt, and pepper. Mix well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Prepare your egg bite molds. Pour the egg and cheese mixture into the molds, filling them about ⅔ full, as the egg bites will expand slightly while cooking.
- Place the molds in the preheated air fryer. Cook for 10 minutes or until the egg bites are golden brown and firm.
- After cooking, carefully remove the egg bites from the molds and allow them to cool slightly. Serve the egg bites warm, either as a breakfast option or as a snack. You can also add your favorite vegetables, seasonings, or sauces to customize the flavor.
Notes
These egg bites are great as a frozen option to make at a later date. They last comfortably for several months.
