Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with cooking spray.
In a blender, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and frothy, about 1 minute.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped bacon to the blender. Pulse a few times until just mixed.
Divide the melted butter evenly among the muffin cups.
Pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about 3/4 of the way full.
Place the muffin pan into a larger baking dish and fill the baking dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the muffin pan. This water bath will help cook the egg bites evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the egg bites are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove the muffin pan from the water bath and let the egg bites cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing them.
Serve warm or store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave for a quick breakfast or snack.
