Savory Spinach Feta Egg Bites (Printable)

Moist, portable egg bites studded with spinach and feta — baked for easy breakfasts or snacks.

# What You'll Need:

→ Vegetables

01 - 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped (or ¾ cup thawed frozen spinach, squeezed dry)
02 - 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onions (optional)

→ Dairy

03 - ⅔ cup feta cheese, crumbled
04 - ½ cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
05 - ¼ cup milk (dairy or unsweetened plant-based)

→ Eggs

06 - 6 large eggs

→ Seasonings

07 - ¼ teaspoon salt
08 - ¼ teaspoon black pepper
09 - ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
10 - Pinch of nutmeg (optional)

# Steps:

01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with silicone muffin liners.
02 - In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until smooth and well combined.
03 - Add the chopped spinach, green onions (if using), crumbled feta, shredded mozzarella or cheddar, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and nutmeg. Fold gently until evenly distributed.
04 - Pour or ladle the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin cups, filling each about ⅔ full.
05 - Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the egg bites are set in the center and lightly golden on top.
06 - Let cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Run a knife around each bite and gently remove. Serve warm or at room temperature.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • They taste like something you would order at a cafe but cost pennies to make at home.
  • The texture stays creamy and moist even after days in the fridge, never rubbery or sad.
02 -
  • Overfilling the muffin cups will cause them to overflow and fuse together into one strange egg slab, which still tastes fine but defeats the purpose of individual bites.
  • Squeezing frozen spinach until it is practically dry is the single most important step, because wet spinach makes soggy, weepy egg bites.
03 -
  • Let the eggs sit out for 15 minutes before whisking because cold eggs do not blend as smoothly and can leave streaks in the batter.
  • Silicone muffin liners are the difference between pristine egg bites and a crumbly, stuck-to-the-pan mess.
