Ingredients for Keto Red Pepper & Spinach Egg White Bites

1. Preheat Oven:

Start preparing the Keto Red Pepper & Spinach Egg White Bites by preheating the oven to 350°F (180°C).

2. Prepare Baking Sheet:

  • Place the baking sheet in the oven and fill it with about 1 inch of hot water.
  • This creates a humid environment for the egg bites to cook evenly.

3. Prep the Muffin Tin:

Grease a 12-cup muffin pan (muffin pan) with oil.

4. Prepare Ingredients for Keto Red Pepper & Spinach Egg White Bites:

Shred the Colby Jack cheese, chop the bell pepper and green onions.

5. Blend:

In a blender or food processor, combine the egg whites and all the cheeses. Blend until light and frothy.

6. Pulse:

  • Add the spinach, green onions, and red bell pepper to the blender.
  • Pulse a few times until finely chopped but not pureed.

7. Fill Muffin Cups:

Divide the mixture evenly among the muffin cups.

8. Bake Keto Red Pepper & Spinach Egg White Bites:

  • Place the muffin pan on the baking sheet with the hot water.
  • Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the center of the egg bites is just set and starts to pull away from the edges of the muffin cups.

9. Cool And Serve:

Let the egg bites cool slightly in the pan before serving.

Tips & Variations:

  • Alternatively, place a 9 x 13″ / 23 x 33cm baking dish in the bottom rack filled with hot water to create a steam water bath. For this recipe, I did a traditional water bath with the muffin pan sitting directly on a 13 x 18″ / 46 x 33cm half baking sheet. Fill about ¾ full.
  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the mixture.
  • You can substitute other vegetables for the red bell pepper and spinach, such as mushrooms, zucchini, or broccoli.
  • If you don’t have a blender or food processor, you can finely chop all the ingredients by hand and whisk the egg whites with a fork until frothy.
