Crunchy Egg Bites

Crunchy Egg Bites are a versatile and protein-packed snack or light meal, perfect for a quick bite. These mini frittatas are baked with a mix of crumbled feta cheese, bell peppers, onions, spinach, and fresh herbs, offering a delightful blend of flavors and textures.

For a Serving Size of Two:

Ingredients:

  • 2 eggs
  • 20 grams crumbled feta cheese
  • 30 grams finely chopped bell peppers
  • 30 grams finely chopped onions
  • 20 finely chopped spinach
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Procedure:

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a muffin tin with olive oil or use non-stick spray.
    In a bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten.
    Add grated cheese, chopped bell peppers, onions, spinach, fresh herbs, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Mix well.
  • Pour the egg mixture evenly into the muffin tin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and slightly golden on top.
    You can test doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
  • Allow the egg bites to cool in the tin for a few minutes before removing them.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature as a crunchy, protein-packed snack or light meal.

Nutritional Benefits: 

  • These egg bites are rich in protein from the eggs and feta cheese, making them a filling and satisfying option.
  • Bell peppers and spinach contribute vitamins A and C, along with antioxidants that support overall health.
  • The inclusion of fresh herbs and paprika adds flavor without extra calories.
  • Olive oil provides healthy fats, supporting heart health. Baking instead of frying keeps these bites lower in fat, making them a nutritious and crunchy choice for any time of the day.
