Equipment

  • (2) 12-count muffin tins
  • Oven adjusted to center rack position
  • large mixing bowl
  • blender or hand mixer
  • scooper spoon

Ingredients

  • 12 strips bacon cooked until crisp, and crumbled
  • 10 large eggs cracked
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups shredded cheese can use any variety you enjoy!
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Spray 2 12-count muffin tins with nonstick spray and set aside.
  • In a blender or in a large mixing bowl, carefully crack the eggs, add the heavy cream, half the shredded cheese, half the bacon, ricotta, salt, and pepper. Blend in a blender, or by using a hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
  • Carefully fill each muffin tin space ⅔ of the way full with the egg mixture.
  • Bake for 20 minutes. The egg bites should feel firm and springy. If they are still watery, continue to bake them in 3 minute increments until no longer under baked. Top each space with additional extra cheese, and bacon crumbles and broil for 1-2 minutes.
  • Allow to cool for 5 minutes before gently removing them with a plastic knife. Simply run the knife around the edges of the bites and they should easily pop out.
