Ingredients For Dunkin Omelet Bites

To make omelet bites, you’ll need:

• Eggs – provide structure and protein
• Cottage cheese – creates a creamy texture and adds protein
• Monterey Jack cheese shredded – adds mild, creamy flavor
• Cheddar cheese, shredded – adds sharp flavor and golden color)
• Salt – enhances all of the flavors
• Bacon bits – provide smoky flavor and texture

Prepare homemade bacon bits or buy a ready-made product containing actual bacon for the best flavor. Hormel’s Real Bacon Bits is a good choice for this recipe.

How To Bake Dunkin Omelet Bites

To make these convenient handheld omelets: 

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Blend the eggs, Monterey Jack, cottage cheese, and salt on low speed until the mixture is slightly thickened and free of lumps. If you don’t have a blender, try whisking everything together in a bowl. Although the texture will not be the same, the egg bites will still be delish.

3. Add the cheddar cheese and bacon bits to the egg mixture. Pulse once or twice, but avoid pureeing the bacon. 

4. Lightly spray a mini-donut baking pan or silicone mold with oil. Even when using a non-stick pan, a light spritz of oil is necessary to prevent the eggs from sticking. A mini muffin pan is an acceptable substitute for a mini donut baking pan, but you should extend the cooking time by a minute or two to ensure the bites cook thoroughly.
5. Set the mini donut baking pan on a cookie sheet and pour the omelet mixture to the top of each bold.

6. Bake in a preheated oven until the eggs are firm, about 10 to 12 minutes.
7. Remove the egg bites from the baking pan immediately.

How do you store these?

Save time in the morning by preparing the omelet mixture the night before and keeping it in the fridge overnight. Take the egg mixture out of the refrigerator 10 minutes before baking.

What’s the best way to reheat these?

The best reheating method to prevent the eggs from drying out is using the microwave:

1. Wrap a thawed egg bite in a damp paper towel.
2. Microwave on medium power for a minute.  
3. Let the egg bite rest a short time before eating.
