Tips and Tricks

Chop the bacon small - Smaller pieces distribute more evenly through all 12 egg bites.
Use liquid egg whites - They’re much easier here than separating enough whole eggs to make 2½ cups.
Let them rest briefly - Five minutes in the muffin pan makes the egg bites easier to remove.

Storing and Reheating

Refrigerator - Store cooled egg bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Freezer - Freeze cooled egg bites in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
Microwave - Reheat refrigerated egg bites in the microwave until warmed through. Start with about 30 seconds and add more time as needed.
