Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese For a creamier texture, full-fat ricotta can be used.
  • 9 large eggs
  • 1 dash black pepper
  • 1 dash salt Adjust to taste, especially if using other cheeses.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
  2. In a blender, combine eggs, ricotta cheese, salt, and pepper. Blend until the mixture is smooth.
  3. Place silicone molds in a baking pan and fill with the egg mixture.
  4. Pour hot water into the baking pan until it reaches halfway up the sides of the molds, creating a hot water bath.
  5. Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until the egg bites are set with a slight jiggle in the center.
Cooling and Storage
  1. Allow the egg bites to cool in the pan, then transfer them to an airtight container for storage.

Notes

These egg bites can be served warm or at room temperature. They are perfect for meal prep and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. For longer storage, freeze individually for up to 2 months.
