Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a mini muffin tin with the softened butter to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs thoroughly until combined. Add the whole milk, salt, and black pepper, and whisk again until the mixture is smooth.
Stir in the cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, chopped red bell pepper, and sliced green onions, ensuring even distribution throughout the egg mixture.
Carefully pour or spoon the egg mixture into the greased mini muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full to allow room for expansion as they bake.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the egg bites to cool in the tin for a few minutes before carefully removing them with a small spatula or a butter knife.
Serve the egg bites immediately, or let them cool completely before storing them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat as needed when ready to eat.
