Preheat your oven to 350℉ and prepare a mini muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray, set aside.
In a blender, add the 6 cracked large eggs, salt, pepper, and cottage cheese. Blend until smooth.
Add in the cheddar cheese and give it a couple of pulses just to mix in the cheese - do not blend.
Pour the egg mixture into the muffin pan, only filling each cavity ¾ of the way full.
Sprinkle each one with the roasted red pepper and bacon.
Bake for 15 minutes or until cooked through. Repeat with any remaining egg mixture.
Let cool for 3-5 minutes before serving, enjoy!
Notes
Homemade Egg Bites can be frozen in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Reheat them from frozen in the microwave for 2-3 minutes.
Homemade Egg Bites can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
The baking time for homemade Egg Bites in a standard muffin tin is typically around 15-20 minutes at 350°F (175°C). However, it may vary slightly depending on your oven and the size of your muffin tin. You can do a toothpick or knife test by inserting it into the center of one egg bite; if it comes out clean without any liquid egg, they are done. If they need more time, continue baking in 2-3 minute increments until they are cooked through. Be careful not to overbake, as this can result in dry egg bites.
If it makes it easier to transfer the egg mixture into the pan by other means, I have found a measuring cup or ladle works well.
