Eggs, they are zero points on the Weight Watchers Freestyle Smartpoints program!! However, it does get boring eating them the same way every day. When my girlfriend Jenn and I were planning our menu for our mid-winter break she brought up the Copy Cat Starbucks Sous Vide that she wanted to try out! Well knowing my kids love eggs we went ahead and planned it out. And I am not surprised to say the kids loved the Instant Pot Egg Bites, all the kids ate them, which can be a rarity with our bunch. (I have included links to some great products that I have bought on my own and we love. You can buy them as well through my online sales links)

Now with the crazy amount of kids between us, we knew a lot of egg bites would be required, I was excited to find these silicone baby food pans on Amazon for under $20 at the time to make even more of these at once in the Instant Pot. We had both packed our Instant Pots but we ended up using my 6 Quart Instant Pot to make these in.

Instant Pot Egg Bites Directions:

Place the bacon on a cookie sheet and bake for about 10 to 15 minutes

In a large bowl (or pot in our case since we ran out of bowls in the condo) place in your dozen eggs, butter, seasoning, and cottage cheese. We used an immersion blender (this one -> here) that Jenn grabbed from her mom’s house. (It’s now on my wish list of appliances) If you don’t have one just drop it in a blender and let it blend.

Rub the silicone cups with oil, or we used butter since no one packed the oil. These are the silicone molds I got off of Amazon -> here but there are a couple different options, I am ordering a set of these ones -> here next, I love they are the same size!

Put about a half cup of water in the liner and turn the Instant Pot to saute to warm it up

Cut bacon into chunks that will fit in the egg cups dish. We used scissors to cut up the bacon and then press the bacon into a cup.

OR place ham into the bottom of the silicone cup

Pour some of the egg mixture from the large bowl into a pour-able Pyrex measuring bowl and add in cheese, pay attention the cheese clumping as you are pouring from the measuring bowl. If you aren’t comfortable pouring with the cheese you can layer in the silicone pan on top of the bacon and on top of the egg mixture.

Make sure your trivet is in the bottom of the instant pot and make sure the handles are upwards for easier removal of the pans after it’s done cooking

Place carefully in the instant pot, if doing both silicone egg pans make sure the cups line up so they stack

Seal the instant pot lid and press manual and press the plus sign/minus sinus till the display screen says 6. Walk away and allow to cook.

When the Instant Pot beeps that the cooking has ended wait 10 minutes for a natural release and then at that time you can release the pressure valve.

Remove the pans by grabbing the handles of the trivet with a towel and lift slowly the pans out

We placed a large dinner plate over the silicone pan and to flip the egg bites out of the pans

Serve and enjoy!!

And you can see how cute the ones were out of the green pan!!! My kids preferred the ham ones.

Now, this is not an exactness but each of the cups had a half piece of bacon in them. So adding up all the ingredients its 14 points for the whole batch WITHOUT bacon. We know this made over 25 but not sure of exact because we used different size molds. Overall each cup will be low points, the ham ones will be even lower if using a lean ham, I plan to make these again using the big blue mold for a more accurate point count.
