They are tasty, quick, and very satisfying to eat. These egg bites are loaded with ham and cheddar cheese.<\/p>\n<p>Air fryer egg bites are truly the best breakfast idea. You can make them in advance and just reheat them in the morning when you\u2019re on your way out. They don\u2019t require a fork and knife \u2013 just pick one up and pop it in your mouth. Even the kids will enjoy these egg bites. For another quick air fryer breakfast try these classic eggs in a hole or \u201chard-boiled\u201d eggs made in the air fryer.<\/p>\n<p>Made with an egg and cream mixture as the base, we then add ham and cheddar. But you can add anything you like to make these bites perfect for you. Add vegetables like broccoli, onions, or mushrooms; add bacon, chicken, or sausage \u2013 anything goes!<\/p>\n<p>Ready in just 15 minutes, you can enjoy these as a breakfast or snack.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tips for Perfect Egg Bites<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You\u2019ll notice that the eggs expand quite a bit in the air fryer as they cook. When you take them out, they might be extending quite a bit outside the mold. They will collapse back and firm up as they rest. That\u2019s why we let them sit for a few minutes before eating.<\/li>\n<li>I\u2019ve also found that the center well doesn\u2019t cook quite as consistently as the other wells. To avoid this issue, I sometimes leave the center mold empty and just use the outer ones.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t overfill the wells of the mold. If you pour the ingredients all the way to the very top, it will have room to expand.<\/li>\n<li>You may have an easier time filling the silicon mold if you place the mold inside the air fryer basket before filling it. Then put in the ingredients when the mold is already in the basket.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Variations To Try<\/strong><br \/>\nEgg bites offer so many options. You really can fill the cups with anything you like. Think about your perfect omelet. What would you put in? Just keep in mind that veggies and raw meat won\u2019t have time to cook through in the egg bites, so you need to precook them.<\/p>\n<p>Try these variations:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sausage, chorizo, steak, salmon<\/li>\n<li>Onion<\/li>\n<li>Broccoli<\/li>\n<li>Sausage<\/li>\n<li>Tomatoes<\/li>\n<li>Mushrooms<\/li>\n<li>Feta<\/li>\n<li>Basil<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Frequently Asked Questions<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>How long will egg bites keep?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Keep egg bites in an air-tight bag or container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. If you freeze them, they\u2019ll be good for up to 2 months. When you\u2019re ready to reheat them, just pop them in the air fryer for about 4 minutes at 340 degrees F.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How do you ensure the eggs are cooked through?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Insert a toothpick before taking the mold out of the basket. If it is slightly wet, cook it for an additional minute or two. I\u2019ve found that 7 minutes is just about perfect every time, except when the eggs or ingredients were super cold when I put them in the mold. Then you might need an extra minute.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can I add vegetables to this mixture?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, you can add whatever you like to these egg bites. Try these bites with chopped onions, bell pepper, corn, or saut\u00e9ed mushrooms. Just make sure to saute the veggies first so they are tender before adding them to the egg bites.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>About Time\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"wprm-recipe-block-container wprm-recipe-block-container-separate wprm-block-text-normal wprm-recipe-time-container wprm-recipe-total-time-container\"><strong>Prep Time<\/strong>\u00a010\u00a0mins<\/li>\n<li class=\"wprm-recipe-block-container wprm-recipe-block-container-separate wprm-block-text-normal wprm-recipe-time-container wprm-recipe-total-time-container\"><strong>Cook Time<\/strong>\u00a07\u00a0mins<\/li>\n<li class=\"wprm-recipe-block-container wprm-recipe-block-container-separate wprm-block-text-normal wprm-recipe-time-container wprm-recipe-total-time-container\"><strong>Resting Time<\/strong>\u00a05\u00a0mins<\/li>\n<li><strong>Total Time<\/strong>\u00a022\u00a0mins<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Amount Per Serving<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Calories:\u00a054kcal<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Carbohydrates:\u00a01g<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Protein:\u00a04g<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Fat:\u00a04g<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Saturated Fat:\u00a02g<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Polyunsaturated Fat:\u00a01g<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Monounsaturated Fat:\u00a01g<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Trans Fat:\u00a01g<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Cholesterol:\u00a057mg<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Sodium:\u00a096mg<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Potassium:\u00a041mg<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Fiber:\u00a01g<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Sugar:\u00a01g<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Vitamin A:\u00a0159IU<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Vitamin C:\u00a01mg<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Calcium:\u00a041mg<\/li>\n<li class=\"nutrition-item\">Iron:\u00a01mg<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2\u00a0tablespoons\u00a0green onions\u00a0chopped<\/li>\n<li>2\u00a0tablespoons\u00a0ham or Canadian bacon\u00a0chopped<\/li>\n<li>2\u00a0tablespoons\u00a0cheddar cheese<\/li>\n<li>2\u00a0eggs<\/li>\n<li>1\u00a0tablespoon\u00a0cream<\/li>\n<li>1\/4\u00a0teaspoon\u00a0garlic powder<\/li>\n<li>Salt and pepper to taste<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Instructions<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Spray egg bite mold with cooking spray.<\/li>\n<li>Fill each well of the mold 1\/2 full with green onion, ham and cheese.<\/li>\n<li>In a bowl, combine the eggs with cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
