Ingredients
- 6 eggs

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

- Cook any desired mix-ins (e.g., bacon, veggies) separately and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk or cream, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Distribute the cooked mix-ins evenly into the greased muffin tin or silicone molds.
- Fill each mold about 3/4 full with the prepared egg mixture.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese on top of each egg-filled mold.
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until the egg bites are set and slightly golden on top.
- Allow the egg bites to cool for a few minutes.

Notes
- Uniform Mix-ins: Distribute mix-ins evenly for consistent flavor in each bite.
- Thorough Greasing: Ensure the muffin tin or molds are well-greased to avoid sticking.
- Cheese on Top: Sprinkle cheese on the surface for a golden, flavorful finish.
- Watch Baking Time: Keep an eye on the oven to prevent overcooking—egg bites are done when set but slightly jiggly.
- Brief Cooling: Allow a short cooling period before removing from molds for easier handling
