How to Store, Freeze & Reheat

These egg bites are perfect for meal prep. Make a batch on Sunday, and you’ve got grab-and-go breakfasts all week. They’re delicious on their own, but I love serving them with a side of avocado toast or a simple green salad for lunch.

In the fridge, they’ll stay fresh for up to 4 days in an airtight container. To freeze, place them in a single layer on a baking sheet, freeze until solid, then transfer to a zip-top bag—they’ll keep for 2 months. Just reheat gently and enjoy!

🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and lightly grease a 6-cup muffin tin or silicone mold with cooking spray.
In a blender, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Blend on high for 30 seconds until completely smooth and frothy.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese by hand, then pour the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake for 18-20 minutes, until the bites are set in the center and slightly puffed. A toothpick inserted should come out mostly clean.
Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then run a knife around the edges and gently pop out. Serve warm or at room temperature.

👩🍳 Chef Elena’s Kitchen Notes & Storage

For the fluffiest bites, don't skip blending the eggs with cottage cheese—it adds air and protein without any lumps. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 2 months; reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds or in a 350°F oven for 5 minutes.
