  • 4 large egg s
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (4% fat)

  • 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
  2. Place a roasting pan filled with 1 inch of water on the bottom rack of the oven to create steam.

  4. Lightly grease 6 wells of a silicone muffin pan.
  5. Distribute the shredded cheese evenly into the bottom of the prepared muffin wells.
  6. Pour the egg mixture over the cheese until each well is 3/4 full.
  7. Bake for 25 minutes until the centers are just set and slightly springy to the touch.
  8. Allow the egg bites to rest in the pan for 5 minutes before carefully removing them with a spatula.
