How to make Instant Pot Egg Bites 

First and foremost, gather all the ingredients and all the mix-ins that you're going to use! Remember that you can change these up the next time you make them, so don't stress too much.

Step One: Crack the eggs into the blender.

Step Two: Add the cottage cheese and the cream cheese into the blender.

Step Three: Blend all the ingredients well and then pour the mixture into a bowl.

Step Four: Add in the mix-ins of your choice. (Be sure that if you're adding in any meat, it's already cooked!)

Step Five: Add the shredded cheese.

Step Six: Fill the molds with the egg mixture.

Step Seven: Place the trivet and water into your Instant Pot.

Step Eight: Place the molds onto the stand. Set the Instant Pot to low pressure for 6 minutes.

Step Nine: Once the time has passed, do a Quick Release. Take your molds out and carefully dish your egg bites.

Variations

The biggest way to vary this recipe is to change the mix-ins. Do some vegetarian egg bites, some meat, and cheese egg bites, and mix and match as you want!

Helpful Tips

If you're worried about the eggs sticking to the molds, spray with nonstick cooking spray before adding. They should easily come out and hold their shape.

How To Serve

There's not much to it! Just pop these pressure cooker egg bites out of the mold and serve! You can add some parmesan cheese to the top if you'd like for another low-carb ingredient.

How to Store

Egg bites store really easily! Just store them in an airtight container in the fridge OR freezer for later!

Freeze them for up to 1 month and in the fridge for up to 4 days.

How to Reheat

To reheat from the fridge, pop them in the microwave for about 30 seconds - 1 minute. Just keep an eye on them as every microwave will heat at a different temperature.

To reheat from frozen, move them to the fridge first to thaw, then the microwave after that to warm up.
