Is the recipe keto friendly?
Instant Pot Egg Bites can be a Keto diet.
Simply make sure your mix-ins do not include higher-carb veggies (like tomatoes) and utilize heavy cream rather than milk or full-fat cottage cheese.
Can I freeze it?
Of course, Instant Pot Egg Bites are freezer-friendly. Freeze them for up to 1 month.
This Instant Pot Egg Bites dish can also last for almost 4 days in your fridge.
Can I reheat the leftovers?
Absolutely, heat in the microwave until steaming hot.
Because egg bites are small, they are quick to reheat.
Pop a few on a plate in the microwave and reheat for 1 – 1.5 minutes from frozen or 30 seconds for fresh.
It really depends on your microwave.
How do I know if my molds are of Silicon or of plastic?
If your lid bends over and touches the other side easily, then it is silicone.
If it is stiff and not bendable, then it is plastic.
How to double batch the recipe?
To double batch the recipe and prepare two molds of Instant Pot Egg Bites at once, all we have to do is:
1. Layer one silicone egg bite mold over another silicone mold.
2. Just double all the ingredients and have double the fun!
