Meal prepping made easy:  Rustle up a batch of homemade Starbucks egg bites, and you will be able to enjoy them for breakfast all week. Easy meal prep like this certainly beats waiting in line at Starbucks.
Tasty:  There’s a reason the egg bites at Starbucks are so popular, and that’s because they taste so good. You can add any flavor, so you can add anything if you’re in the mood for bacon and Gruyere egg bites or green onions with Monterey Jack cheese and bell peppers.

Starbucks Egg Bites Ingredients

The main ingredients in these little treats, like the Starbucks sous vide egg bites, are eggs and cottage cheese. Everything else is for flavor, color, and texture.

In this egg bites recipe, garlic, bell peppers, cheese, spinach, and green onions add plenty of flavors, although you can omit anything you don’t like or add other components, such as chopped cooked bacon or sliced mushrooms.

Blend the main ingredients:  Blend the egg whites with the cottage cheese, garlic, salt, and some of the shredded cheese.
Add the vegetables:  Add the spinach and some of the bell pepper and pulse briefly.
Prepare the egg mold:  Lightly grease an egg mold, silicon mold or muffin cups.
Divide the mixture between the molds:  Add the reserved spinach, peppers and cheese to the greased mold or muffin tin.
Add the egg mixture:  Divide the prepared egg mixture on top of the veggies and cheese.
Prepare a water bath:  Add a couple of inches of warm water to a baking dish and then put the egg mold in there. The purpose of the egg bath is to cook the egg bites evenly and keep them moist and tender.
Cook the egg bites:  Cover the whole thing with foil and bake for an hour or until done, then garnish with green onions.

Substitutions and Variations

It’s completely up to you which flavours to add to egg bite recipes. Pretty much any kind of vegetable will work. You can add meat as well if you want, as long as it’s cooked. Consider chicken, bacon or even smoked tofu cubes. Shredded gruyere cheese, parmesan cheese, swiss cheese, ricotta cheese or cheddar cheese are also great options. You really can get creative with the homemade version of egg bites.

What to Serve with Egg Bites

These gorgeous little breakfast snacks, baked in the oven, are amazing as they are, or you can pair them with fresh fruit (like a berry salad), a fruit smoothie, a bowl of cereal and milk, some yogurt, or anything else you like at breakfast time. Maybe pack them for lunch along with a copycat Starbucks oat bar.

Storage Directions

Store:  Refrigerate leftover Starbucks copycat egg bites in an airtight container within 2 hours and use them within four days.
Freeze:  Freeze in a single layer on a baking sheet for 2 hours, then transfer into freezer bags.
Reheat:  25 seconds in the microwave or 10 minutes in a 350°F oven works perfectly.
