Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with a bit of olive oil or cooking spray.
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and dice them into small cubes (about 1 cm).
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook for 6–8 minutes until golden and tender, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, deseed and finely dice the red bell pepper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs until well blended. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, if desired.
Add the cooked potatoes, diced red bell pepper, and shredded cheese to the egg mixture. Stir until evenly combined.
Spoon the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup almost to the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the omelet bites are puffed and set in the center.
Let the omelet bites cool in the tin for 2–3 minutes before carefully removing them with a butter knife or small spatula.
Serve warm or at room temperature. These bites can also be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days and reheated before serving.
