Base Ingredients

  • 1 can cooking spray for greasing the muffin tin
  • 10 ounces 2% or 4% milkfat cottage cheese
  • 6 large eggs
  • 5 ounces shredded cheese sharp cheddar, Monterey Jack, or Gruyère
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Cooking Instructions

  • Arrange a rack in the lowest part of the oven and a second rack in the middle. Heat the oven to 300ºF.
  • Coat a standard 12-well muffin tin generously with cooking spray. Divide the fillings of choice evenly among the wells.
  • Blend cottage cheese, eggs, shredded cheese, cornstarch, hot sauce, kosher salt, and black pepper together in a blender until very smooth, about 1 minute.
  • Pour into the muffin wells, dividing it evenly. Use a chopstick or small fork to stir each well to distribute the fillings a bit.
  • Fill a 9x13-inch baking dish about halfway with very hot tap water. Place on the lower rack. Place the muffin tin on the middle rack. Bake until the egg bites are set, about 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Run a small knife or offset spatula around each egg bite to loosen and lift out of the pan. Serve warm.
