Instant Pot Bacon & Gruyère Egg Bites
Mornings can be chaotic, but starting your day with a high-protein, carnivore-friendly breakfast can set the tone for success. These Instant Pot Bacon & Gruyère Egg Bites are inspired by the ever-popular Starbucks egg bites but designed to fit seamlessly into a carnivore or low-carb lifestyle.
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 4 ounces ½ cup cream cheese
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- ½ cup shredded Gruyère cheese about 2 ounces
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 slices thin-cut bacon cooked (see below for tips) and chopped
Instructions
- Add all ingredients, except the bacon, to a blender and blend until the mixture is smooth.
- Distribute the chopped bacon evenly among the wells of the egg bite mold.
- Pour the egg mixture into the mold over the bacon, filling each well to the top.
- Cover the mold with its lid (or aluminum foil if unavailable). Place the mold on the trivet and lower it into the Instant Pot with 1 cup of water in the pot.
- Seal the Instant Pot lid and set to Manual High Pressure for 9 minutes. Once done, allow a natural release for 10 minutes, then carefully release any remaining pressure.
- Remove the egg bites from the mold after cooling for 5 minutes and serve immediately or store for later.
