Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs (preferably room temperature)
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream (60 ml)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (60 g), such as sharp cheddar or gruyere
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (45 g), softened
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh herbs (chives or parsley), chopped (optional)
  • Cooking spray or oil for greasing the muffin tin

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray or softened butter.
  2. Whisk the eggs and heavy cream together in a medium bowl until smooth and slightly frothy, about 2-3 minutes. Do not overmix.
  3. Stir in shredded cheese, salt, and pepper. Fold in fresh herbs or cooked bacon if using.
  4. Pour the mixture into the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Check for doneness around 20 minutes; the egg bites should be set but still soft in the center.
  6. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add minced garlic and cook gently for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  7. Let the egg bites cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Use a butter knife or small spatula to loosen the edges and carefully remove each bite.
  8. Drizzle the warm garlic butter generously over the egg bites just before serving.

Notes

Do not overwhisk the eggs to keep the texture tender and creamy. Use low heat when melting garlic butter to avoid bitterness. Filling muffin cups about 3/4 full prevents overflow and allows puffing. Let the egg mixture rest 5 minutes before baking for better flavor melding. Drizzle garlic butter just before serving or reheating to keep fresh flavor.
