• 1 as needed olive oil spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).

Step 2

Lightly spray a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil spray to prevent sticking.

Add garlic powder, salt, and black pepper, and mix until the ingredients are well distributed.

Step 6

Evenly distribute the egg mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.

Step 7

Place the muffin tin into the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until the egg bites are set and lightly golden on top.

Step 8

Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before carefully removing the egg bites.

Serve warm or let them cool completely for storage. They can be kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days or frozen for up to three months.
