For an even smoother texture, strain the egg mixture through a fine-mesh sieve before pouring it into the muffin cups. Feel free to experiment with different cheeses and add-ins! Roasted red peppers, spinach, or crumbled sausage would all be delicious. Make sure the water bath reaches halfway up the sides of the muffin tin to ensure even cooking and prevent the egg bites from drying out. Egg bites can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven.
