These look great! I would love to try them. The link to the egg bite molds doesn't seem to be working. Just wondering if you could send me the link to where these can be purchased. Thanks!

Thank you for this suggestion Sharon! I cooked 8 minutes on low and they were perfect!

In reply to Sharon C. Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding the cooking time. Just like ovens, some IP models run hot.

I loved these, both the bacon/gruyere and the spinach/roasted red pepper. However, I had to make one change - the time and pressure. My Instant Pot cooked the living daylights out of these cooked for 9 minutes on high pressure. After that batch I would have given these 2 stars.
I am by no means a chef, but I knew they were overcooked. I saw somewhere else they suggested 8 minutes on low pressure. SUCCESS!! These were far superior; they were tender, moist and delicious.

In reply to Elsy Kay. Hi Elsy! I use these egg bite molds. For future reference, I link the products I use in the recipe card under equipment. But if you can't find it or have a question, never hesitate to ask :)

In reply to Jackie.

For nutrition information, did you use 4% cottage cheese or 2%?

They look great.

Thanks for the recipe 🙂

In reply to Kay. I love hearing these are a regular in your rotation! And let us know how egg beaters work out. I doubt they will be as fluffy, but maybe?!

I have put these into our 'breakfast rotation' w/various alterations and they have been a welcome addition. A few adjustments for differences in expectations and tastes and they are a wonderful new find for a crew that really does not care for breakfast. Also a nice, easy, guilt free afternoon snack. We have used traditional whole eggs and regular cottage cheese thus far, but am going to try an Egg Beaters variant next, and egg whites only. I love my molds, too - have now made cornbread in them!

In reply to Anna. Hi Anna. I haven't tried simmering them on the stove, so without testing that, I wouldn't be able to properly advise. However, you can bake in the oven by placing the silicone tray in a 9x13 pan filled halfway with warm water. Bake at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for about 35-40 minutes or until set.

I don’t have a pressure cooker. How would you adjust the cooking time if you were simmering these in a covered pan of water on the stove?

In reply to Hac. As long as the package states heat-safe, yes :)

My egg bites insert molds came with silicon lids. Could I use these silicon lids in the pot instead of the foil?

In reply to Renee Zomaya. Hi Renee! I am sorry you had this issue. I know you said you followed the recipe, but did you remember to use natural pressure release (leave the lid alone for 10 minutes AFTER the cooking time has elapsed?) Also what egg bite molds did you use and how much water? That may help me troubleshoot.

Hello! First time instant pot girl here!
I followed the recipe to a T, but my bites escaped the molds and the texture was not like a sous vide egg bite, it was a puffy scrambled egg. Should I use the sous vide setting? I'd show you a photo but I do not have the ability. Help please 😉

I made these in a whim as I got a a egg mold for Christmas last year.
My husband absolutely insists that I make these for him every week. He drives away from home during the week and loves having them on the road. I am so glad to have found this recipe.
