Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 4 slices Smithfield® Bacon
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup Gouda cheese (* shredded ( I use smoked Gouda))
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese (* whole milk)
  • 1 tablespoon butter (* melted)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instruction

  • Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until done, but still pliable.
  • Break each slice of bacon into 2-3 pieces and place evenly inside each well of an egg bites mold.
  • In a blender cup add the eggs, gouda cheese, cottage cheese, melted butter, and salt. Blend until smooth, about 20-30 seconds.
  • Pour the egg mixture evenly into all of the egg bites wells, leaving a small amount of space at the top of each one.
  • Cover the mold with a paper towel, then tightly wrap in foil.
  • Place the mold onto the trivet inside of an Instant Pot or pressure cooker along with 1 cup of water.
  • Set to pressure cook for 8 minutes.
  • Allow the pressure cooker to do a natural release for 10 minutes, then carefully remove the egg bites mold.
  • Uncover the mold and allow to cool a few minutes before carefully popping out the egg bites.
