Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 3 slices smoked turkey bacon, chopped
  • 1/2 cup plant-based cheese, grated or cubed
  • 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon grape juice (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs such as parsley or chives (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prep the Egg Mixture: Whisk the eggs in a large bowl until smooth. Stir in the vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), grape juice (natural), salt, and pepper. Gently fold in the natural gelling agent to create a custard-like consistency.
  2. Add Fillings: Fold chopped smoked turkey bacon, plant-based cheese, and any optional vegetables or fresh herbs into the egg mixture evenly, ensuring every bite has flavor.
  3. Prepare the Containers: Lightly grease silicone molds or small ramekins to prevent sticking. Pour the egg mixture into each container, filling about 3/4 full to allow for expansion during cooking.
  4. Set Up the Instant Pot: Pour 1 cup of water into the Instant Pot and place the trivet inside. Stack the filled molds or ramekins on the trivet, making sure none touch the water.
  5. Cook the Egg Bites: Seal the Instant Pot lid and cook on high pressure for 8 minutes. After cooking, allow a natural pressure release for 5 minutes before carefully removing the molds.
  6. Cool and Serve: Let the egg bites cool for a few minutes, then gently remove them from the molds. Serve warm or pack for breakfast on the go.

Notes

  • Use silicone molds for easier removal and faster cleanup.
  • Fill containers 3/4 full to prevent spillage during cooking.
  • Add the natural gelling agent last for the best texture.
  • Sauté smoked turkey bacon before mixing to enhance flavor.
  • Test one egg bite first to perfect cooking time before making a full batch.
