Instant Pot Egg Bites

Step 1

In a blender, place the eggs, cottage cheese, salt, pepper, and shredded cheese, if using. Blend until well combined. Tap the blender on the counter to remove any air bubbles.

Step 2

Divide bacon (or filling of your choice) evenly between the egg bite molds. Pour the egg batter into the egg molds, dividing the mixture evenly. Each egg mold should be about 3/4ths of the way full. Cover the egg bite mold tightly with foil.

Step 3

Pour 1.5 cups of cold water into the inner pot of the pressure cooker and place a metal rack inside the inner pot. Place the egg bites on the rack, stacking the molds if you prepared a double batch.

Step 4

Place the lid on the inner pot and be sure the vent knob is sealed. Set cook time for 9 minutes on high pressure. Do this by hitting manual or pressure cook and use the +/- buttons to adjust to read "9."

Step 5

Once cook time has elapsed, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes.

Step 6

Remove the egg bite mold from the inner pot and let rest for 2-5 minutes before inverting the mold onto a plate.
