Cackleberry Bites (Cowboy Egg Bites) - Cowboy Kent Rollins

Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes
Servings 12 egg bites

Ingredients

  • Butter for greasing
  • 4 slices thick-cut bacon chopped
  • 10 large eggs
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons black pepper
  • 1/2 red bell pepper diced
  • 1 to 2 green onions chopped
  • 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Butter a 12-cup muffin pan and set aside.
  • In a medium cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream cheese, mayonnaise, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  • Pour the batter into 10 to 12 muffin cups to about ¾ full. Sprinkle the tops evenly with the bacon and about 1/2 tablespoon of the diced bell pepper. Evenly sprinkle
  • with the green onion and about 1/2 tablespoon of the cheese. Lightly stir each bite with a toothpick.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and cooked through. Remove from the pan and let cool slightly before serving.
  • Tip: These remove easier if baked in a silicone muffin pan.
