Cheesy Bacon Breakfast Bites

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Cheesy bacon breakfast bites are the perfect healthy start to your day. Eggs, bacon, and cheese are baked up into muffin sized bites. Fluffy and flavorful, they’re 21 Day Fix approved, too!

Confession # 45 – I’m struggling this week.

After a weekend away with the girls, I am finding it difficult to get back into my routine.

Apparently I’m getting old.

As much as I loved our late night dance parties, I think we forgot the most important part of getting away without the kids.

Sleep.

We forgot to include an extra 24 hours of sleeping, ordering take-out, and watching mindless TV in lounge clothes.  Next time, ladies, this must be included.

Since I’ve been back, it has taken all of my energy just keeping up with my kids.  I haven’t worked out and my nutrition has just been off.

But tonight I am pushing play no matter what.  I just need to “break the seal” or something.  You get me, right?  Actually, I have no idea if I am making any sense, but I am looking forward to a good sweat session tonight.

Photo cred goes to my friend, TB! Nice work.

Anyway, I want to share these cheesy bacon breakfast bites with you, that I made on Saturday.

They were so yummy and the perfect breakfast for a crowd. Someone asked if they were Fix approved, and honestly, that’s what I love about the FIX.  Almost everything is FIX approved.

Well, maybe not the Jello shots we may have had.

This picture (and the bags under my eyes) is strong evidence of the Jello shots in question.

And we did use pancetta, which isn’t on any FIX approved list I have seen. Because of it’s higher fat content, turkey bacon is a better choice for everyday meals. But if you are having company, go with the pancetta.  Delish!

Description

Cheesy bacon breakfast bites are the perfect healthy start to your day. Eggs, bacon, and cheese are baked up into muffin sized bites. Fluffy and flavorful, they’re 21 Day Fix approved, too!


Scale

Ingredients

  • 6 free range organic eggs
  • 1/4 cup of almond milk
  • 1/2 onion, diced
  • 6 slices of turkey bacon
  • 1 1/2 cups of fresh spinach
  • 1 cup of diced mushrooms
  • 1 cup of shredded cheddar, feta, or other cheese of your choice

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

  5. Whisk the eggs together in a large bowl and add the almond milk.
  6. Grease the muffin tins with the coconut oil.
  7. Place the bacon crumbles at the bottom of each muffin tin. Next add the veggies. Then, pour the whisked eggs evenly into the muffin tins, ¾ of the way to the top. Finally, top with cheese and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
  8. Bake in the oven for approximately 15- 20 minutes until cooked through.
  9. Use a knife to loosen the egg cups from the tin. Remove from muffin tin and serve warm.

Notes

Serving size – 2 muffins –

    Do you use a regular muffin tin or a mini muffin tin?

      Every time I make egg cups of any kind, they just deflate into flat egg disc things the moment I take them from the oven. Any tips to avoid this or is it all just the reaction of the heat to the air in the eggs etc?

        Unfortunately, eggs expands during cooking and shrinks back as it cools. Hopefully they still taste yummy!

      Not silly! You should get 12…but depending on your eggs, you might get less.
