Ingredients

• 8 large Eggs
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 6 slices Bacon
• 1 cup, shredded Gruyere cheese
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons, finely chopped Green onions
• 1 teaspoon, for greasing Butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

Step 2

Place the bacon slices in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels. Once cool, crumble the bacon.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until fully combined and smooth.

Step 4

Stir in the crumbled bacon, shredded Gruyere cheese, salt, and black pepper into the egg mixture.

Step 5

Lightly grease a silicone muffin pan or non-stick muffin tin with butter.

Step 6

Evenly distribute the egg mixture into each muffin cup until about three-quarters full.

Step 7

Sprinkle the chopped green onions evenly across the tops of each muffin cup.

Step 8

Place the muffin pan in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the egg bites are slightly golden on top and set in the center.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and allow the egg bites to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve warm, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat gently in the microwave before serving.
