Notes

Tips

Egg bites continue cooking slightly after being removed from the oven. Pull them out once the centers are set.
Room-temperature eggs blend more easily and create a smoother texture.
Even non-stick pans benefit from a generous coating of cooking spray.
Allowing them to cool for a few minutes makes them easier to remove without breaking.
