Learn how to make egg bites in your Instant Pot with spinach and feta cheese. These egg bites can also be baked in muffin pans in your oven.
Want to make your own egg bites? Places like Starbucks have made them popular but you can totally do them at home for a fraction of the cost.
Our family likes to make them using the Instant Pot along with some silicone molds you can find on Amazon. You are going to use the Instant Pot to steam the eggs, producing an egg bite that is soft and moist.
If you don't have an egg bite mold or an Instant Pot, you can bake the egg bites in mini cupcake pans in the oven. The texture will be different and you will get some browning on the eggs. I would cook the egg bites in a 350 degree oven for 18-22 minutes. The eggs should be cooked to a minimum 160 degrees when checked with a thermometer.
Either way should be delicious.
