These creamy cottage cheese egg bites with roasted red pepper and feta are quick, easy, and packed with flavor, perfect for a healthy breakfast or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup (240 ml) small-curd cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) roasted red pepper, diced
  • 1/3 cup (75 g) feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk (whole or 2%)
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Lightly grease your muffin tin or silicone molds to prevent sticking.
  2. Blend the cottage cheese in a food processor or blender until smooth. If you don’t have a blender, mash thoroughly with a fork.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs and 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk until uniform and slightly frothy, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Fold the blended cottage cheese into the egg mixture gently until combined without overmixing.
  5. Add the diced roasted red pepper, crumbled feta, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until evenly distributed.
  6. Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin or silicone molds, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
  7. Bake for 22-25 minutes until puffed, slightly golden on top, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the egg bites cool for 5 minutes in the pan to firm up.
  9. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

Blend the cottage cheese thoroughly to avoid grainy texture. Drain roasted red peppers well to prevent watery egg bites. Bake at a lower temperature (325°F) to keep egg bites creamy and avoid rubbery edges. Use room temperature eggs for even cooking. Test doneness with a toothpick.
